ACC Baseball Tournament: 2025 Bracket, Schedule, Past Winners

Eight ACC baseball teams earned bids to the NCAA Tournament in 2024, with 5 of them seeded in the top 16 as regional hosts. 

A record 4 of those teams advanced to the College World Series.

It marked the 20th consecutive season in which the ACC sent at least 6 teams into regional play and the 18th in a row that the league has been represented by at least 1 team in Omaha.

With the addition of Cal and Stanford, the ACC has become even deeper and more competitive than ever. That makes the decision to tweak the conference tournament format to a single-elimination event with all 16 baseball-playing schools involved all the more timely.

This page contains information about the ACC Tournament, from past winners to schedules and more.

2025 ACC Tournament Bracket

All 16 ACC baseball teams will compete in a single-elimination format. The tournament runs from Tuesday, May 20, through Sunday, May 25, 2025, at Durham Bulls Athletic Park. Under the new format, the top 4 seeds will receive a double-bye into the quarterfinal round. Seeds 5 through 8 will earn a bye into Wednesday’s second round. Seeds 9-16 will begin play with four first-round games on Tuesday. The championship will be decided Sunday. Here is the bracket for the 2025 ACC Tournament:
