The Southeastern baseball team (31-9, 16-5 SLC) will hit the road for four games this week, starting with a 6 p.m. nonconference contest at No. 23 Southern Miss Wednesday.

The No. 1 seed will host the 4,5 and 8 seeds, while the second seed will host seeds 3,6 and 7, May 1-4. The winners of the two brackets will advance to the championship series, hosted by the highest remaining seed, May 8-10.
