Clemson baseball is headed to the NCAA Tournament for the third straight season after finishing with over 40 wins again under Erik Bakich.
The third-year head coach has really taken control of the program and it has become one of the best in the country despite losing the ACC Championship Game against North Carolina on Sunday afternoon, 14-4. This was a tough pill to swallow as it would have been Clemson's second ACC Tournament title in three years.
The Tigers didn't stand much of a chance against North Carolina in the title game, falling behind 14-0 by the end of the sixth inning and they would score four unanswered to make it a 14-4 final.
Bakich is going to burn the tape from that one and move on to the postseason.
Shortly after the loss, Clemson found out that it would be one of 16 teams hosting a regional in the 2025 NCAA Tournament and the Tigers became just one of two programs to host three straight from 2023-25.

Who will the Tigers play in the regional? They won't find that out until Monday, May 26, at around noon. North Carolina is the only other ACC team to host a regional this year.
Clemson has a chance to bounce back from that forgettable ACC Championship loss to North Carolina and what better way than to make its first College World Series since 2010?
