The Indiana baseball program is back in the NCAA Tournament.
For the first time since 2019, the Hoosiers enter postseason play with high expectations on making some noise. The selection was announced on Monday with Indiana receiving a 3-seed.
The Hoosiers are in the Lexington region with Kentucky as the host team. The other programs in the region are 1-seed Kentucky, 2-seed West Virginia and the 4-seed Ball State. Indiana opens play with West Virginia.
The Lexington region takes place from June 2-5. The winner of the Lexington region will face the winner of the Baton Rouge regional.
The Indiana baseball program finished the season 41-18 overall and 16-8 in the Big Ten — good enough for second in the conference.
It was the first time since 2013 that Indiana reached 40 wins in the regular season and first since 2018 to hit the mark at all. It was the ninth time in Indiana baseball program history to hit the 40-win mark.
