Here is more on how the tournament works:

What is the difference between the Division I baseball tournament and the College World Series?

The NCAA DI baseball tournament is a 64-team tournament that starts in late May. After two rounds of play (which each consist of multiple games), there are just eight teams left. These eight teams then head to Omaha, NE. for the College World Series. The CWS is the culmination of the DI tournament, where the teams compete in two brackets, with the winners of each meeting in the CWS finals, a best-of-three series to decide the NCAA champion.

When did the College World Series start?

The first-ever NCAA DI baseball tournament was in 1947, and would barely be recognized as the same tournament nowadays. The 1947 tournament featured just eight teams, which were divided into two four-team, single-elimination brackets. The two winners — California and Yale — then met in a best-of-three final in Kalamazoo, MI. California would go undefeated through the inaugural CWS and beat Yale to capture the first title.

How are teams selected for the NCAA Division I baseball tournament?

Since 1954, the NCAA DI baseball tournament field has been split into two qualifying groups: the automatic berths, and the at-large selections. Since 2025, 29 conference champions receive automatic berths, and 35 teams receive at-large bids, decided by the NCAA DI Baseball Committee.

There’s already a fair amount of local representation heading to USA Hockey’s Girls Under-18 Women’s National Team Festival.

The festival will take place in Lake Placid, N.Y., from August 3-9.

The initial roster includes 15 players. A third of that group is made up of Massachusetts locals, including current prep hockey stars.

Players competing in the National 15 and 16/17 camps will also have the opportunity to advance to the U18 festival. A final roster of approximately 46 players across the 2008, 2009 and 2010 age groups will be released on July 29, 2025, following the conclusion of the 16/17 and 15 camps.

At the U18 festival, players will be evaluated to make the U18 Select Series team, which competes against Canada the week after the festival.

NATIONAL CAMPS: 46 locals make 15 Camp | 36 locals make 16/17 Camp | 12 locals make U19 Training Camp

Here’s which locals made the preliminary roster.

On Wednesday, the Dartmouth baseball program held its annual end of the year banquet, recognizing six student athletes with team awards.
 
Junior Taer Rodriguez was an offensive powerhouse this year, taking home both MVP and Offensive Player of the Year. Rodriguez led the Big Green with a .336 batting average, 24 runs scored, and a .453 on base percentage, thanks to a team leading 17 walks and 12 it by pitches.
 
From March 28 through April 22, Rodriguez was riding a 16-game hitting streak, sitting atop the Ivy League with a batting average over .360. Over that stretch, he was hitting .419, collecting 26 hits in six multi-hit games. He went 3-for-4 with three RBI in a win over UMass Lowell, 4-for-6 in a win over Harvard, and 2-for-4 scoring the game winning run against Brown.  He also improved his fielding at third base by nearly 30 points, making two less errors.
 
Next, senior Danny Will was named the Big Green’s pitcher of the year. He made 14 appearances out of the bullpen, the second most appearances of any Dartmouth pitcher, throwing 27 total innings. His 5.00 ERA is the third lowest on the team and his two wins matches the most of any Big Green pitcher this season.
 
Will started the season with back-to-back scoreless and hitless outings at No. 16 Texas. He also threw scoreless outings against Ivy League foes Princeton, Brown, and Cornell. Will’s best outing of the season was against the Brown Bears where he earned the win for 3.1 scoreless and hitless relief innings, striking out three batters for his season high.
 
Sophomore Camden Rush took home Dartmouth’s most improved player award. He had a slow start to the season but had a breakout series vs. the Harvard Crimson. Rush went -for-3 with three RBI and one run scored in game one, added an RBI in game two, and closed the series going 2-for-4 with one run scored and four RBI, helping Dartmouth to the series sweep.
Rush also shined at Holy Cross, going 2-for-4 at the plate and driving in more than half of the Big Green’s runs, collecting five RBI. In addition to his success at the plate, Rush improved in the field, making only two errors to increase his fielding percentage by nearly 70 points.
 
All eight first-years made an impact for the Big Green, but Bryce Loeger stood out, being named the team’s Rookie of the Year. Loeger made 12 total appearances, nine starts and three additional relief appearances. He started the season with four innings of relief at No. 16 Texas, allowing only two runs on four hits before moving into more of a starter role.
 
His best start of the season was vs. the Penn Quakers, giving up only one unearned run on three hits in six innings. Loeger also earned one save this season for one scoreless inning of relief against the Cornell Big Red before throwing five innings in a scheduled start. He finished his first season with the Big Green with a 6.61 ERA in 47.2 innings. He walked 23 batters and fanned 29.
 
For the second straight year, Shane Bauer was named Teammate of the Year. The fifth-year senior made three appearances out of the bullpen early in the season.
 
Finally, senior captain Elliot Krewson was awarded the James Henry Cooke Award. The award is given to the four-year letterwinner that has done the most for the Dartmouth Baseball program during his career.
 
Krewson played in 34 of the Big Green’s 36 games this season, finishing the year with 17 runs scored, nine doubles, two home runs, and 18 RBI. His nine doubles and two home runs are good for second on the team while his 17 runs scored are good for fourth best and his 18 RBI are good for third best.
 
He went 2-for-4 in back-to-back wins over the Penn Quakers, scoring three runs with three RBI. Krewson also had multi-hit games in wins over Harvard (3-for-6) and Brown (2-for-5). He also rode a 12-game winning streak late in the season, spanning over a month from April 9 to May 10.
 
Members of the Big Green were also recognized by the Ivy League with its end of season awards. Click here to read more on Dartmouth’s four honorees.

Welcome to the Morning Commute

Today we’re talking the ending of Mizzou’s sports season.

Let’s just get this out of the way. I hate summer – not only because of the hot weather, but because it’s the end of the college sports season after the College World Series. And after Mizzou Baseball’s loss to Alabama in the First Round of the SEC Tournament – Mizzou’s 2024-2025 athletic season has officially come to an end.

There were some highs, but there were also some lows. Mizzou Football Head Coach Eli Drinkwitz accomplished back-to-back 10-win seasons for the program – which hasn’t happened since 2013-2014. Meanwhile, Dennis Gates led Mizzou Basketball back to the NCAA Tournament with an incredible turnaround after a 0-19 SEC season.

The non-revenue sports were highlighted by Dawn Sullivan’s women’s volleyball team making the Sweet 16 and Shannon Welker’s Mizzou Gymnastics team making program history after finishing 3^rd place at the NCAA Championships highlighted by an individual National Champion from Helen Hu.

There was also a coaching change in Mizzou women’s basketball after the departure of Robin Pingeton – but the future is looking bright under new head coach Kellie Harper as she’s putting together an impressive transfer portal class.

However, Larissa Anderson’s softball program missed the NCAA Tournament for the first time since 2006, and Kerrick Jackson’s baseball’s program hit rock bottom after an historically bad 3-27 SEC season.

I didn’t mention all of Mizzou sports here, but that’s what the Majority Rules podcast is here for (ICMYI a couple of weeks ago).

At the beginning of the podcast, Abigail, Matthew, Quentin, and Karen all agreed to give Mizzou Athletics an overall (A-) grade.

Though, let’s hear from you: What overall grade would you give Mizzou Athletics for the 2024-2025 season based off of the results?

It may be the offseason, but we’ll still have plenty of coverage right here on Rock M nation and over at Rock M+.

“There’s no way it will get that far, surely. But reporters have to love this drama, and it sure gives them plenty of content to write about during a slow news period.”

More NIL talk!

“Are you worried about the lack of recruits in the 2026 cycle? Will Drinkwitz turn things around, or is there trouble a-foot on the recruiting trail?”

It’s been a slow start to Mizzou’s 2026 recruiting class, but there could be good news coming on Saturday. Stay tuned.

Missouri football in 2025, should not lose to kansas football. I stand by this assertion.

F- – – – k u.

Beat kU, Drinkwitz. Embarrass them on September 6th.

“Gwyn will focus on coaching the team’s defense and serve as recruiting coordinator. He held a similar role the last four seasons at North Texas, where he also served as an assistant.

Welcome to the Mizzou Softball coaching staff, Jason Gywn!

The athletic director of Mt. Ararat High School, who helped deliver new athletic facilities to the Topsham school, will be stepping down from his position in less than three months.

In a resignation letter obtained by Maine’s Total Coverage, Geoff Godo informed Mt. Ararat High School Principal Chris Hoffman that he will resign Aug. 1 and provide whatever transitional support he can through the summer for the school’s next athletic director.

“This is not a decision I have made lightly, but I feel it is best for me and my family that I step aside from the rigors of this very demanding position and pursue other professional opportunities,” Godo said in the letter.

Godo, a Topsham resident, has been Mt. Ararat High’s athletic director since the spring of 2016 and will complete his ninth full school year in the role.

The agenda for Thursday night’s Maine School Administrative District 75 Board of Directors meeting indicates the board will accept Godo’s resignation, effective Aug. 1.

Before becoming athletic director, Godo served as Mt. Ararat’s freshman baseball coach and as an assistant on the varsity baseball team from 2014 to 2016.

The University of Michigan graduate moved to Maine in 2005 and worked for the Portland Pirates of the American Hockey League as the team’s account executive and vice president of ticket sales.

In 2008, Godo transitioned to education and served as an ed tech at Lisbon High School while earning his teaching certificate at the University of New England. He later went on to teach at Lisbon High, and he also coached baseball and basketball at Sugg Middle School in Lisbon during that time.

Before arriving at Mt. Ararat, Godo was a social studies teacher at Westbrook High School for seven years. He also coached varsity golf and freshman baseball during his time at Westbrook High.

In an email to Maine’s Total Coverage, MSAD 75 Superintendent Heidi O’Leary confirmed Godo has decided to resign effective Aug. 1.

“To be very clear, it would be completely wrong to draw any connection between Mr. Godo’s decision and the criminal investigation of a former MSAD 75 employee that was announced on May 19,” O’Leary said in the email.

On Feb. 16, MSAD 75 officials ended the Mt. Ararat High School boys ice hockey team’s season amid allegations of bullying or harassment involving players and after the head coach had announced his resignation on Facebook.

In April, law firm Brann & Isaacson released a summary report of its investigation into the Mt. Ararat High School’s boys ice hockey team. The law firm found student-athletes on the hockey team participated in hazing, bullying and sexually inappropriate conduct.

Maine’s Total Coverage has found no stated connection between Godo’s resignation and what happened with the high school hockey team.

Mt. Ararat High School is the only high school within MSAD 75, which serves four communities in the Midcoast region: Bowdoin, Bowdoinham, Harpswell and Topsham. Those towns cover an area of approximately 40 square miles and have a collective approximate population of about 20,000.
