Rankings from D1Baseball

The 2023 Southern Conference baseball tournament will be held from May 24 through 28 at Fluor Field at the West End in Greenville, South Carolina. The annual event determines the conference champion of the Division I Southern Conference in college baseball. The tournament winner earns the league's bid to the 2023 NCAA Division I baseball tournament. This is the last of 20 athletic championships held by the conference in the 2022–23 academic year.[2]

The tournament was originally held from 1950 to 1953, when the Southern Conference was a large conference composed of several small schools and several large schools, the latter of which would form the Atlantic Coast Conference after the 1953 season. The event was re-established in 1984 and has been held every year since with the exception of 2020 when the COVID-19 pandemic cancelled sporting events across the country. Western Carolina has claimed ten championships, the most of any school, with The Citadel close behind at eight tournament wins. Samford has three championships, while Mercer and defending champion UNC Greensboro have each won two. East Tennessee State and VMI have never won a title, although they both returned to the conference in 2015 after over ten years in other conferences. Furman, which dropped its baseball program before the 2021 season, won two titles.

The tournament will be played in Greenville, which has hosted the past six events.[3]

## Seeding and format[edit]

All eight teams will participate in the tournament, with the bottom four seeds playing a single-elimination play-in round. The remaining teams will then play a six-team double-elimination tournament, with the top two seeds receiving a bye and playing first round winners.[4]
