Diamond Hogs Set for NCAA Tournament as Hosts
FAYETTEVILLE — The NCAA has announced the 16 host sites for this year’s NCAA Tournament regional round, confirming that the Arkansas Razorbacks, affectionately known as the Diamond Hogs, will enjoy home-field advantage once again. This marks the sixth time in the last seven years that the Razorbacks have hosted a regional, although they have faced challenges in advancing, failing to progress beyond their regional for the past two seasons. Interestingly, during the one year Arkansas did not host, the team made a remarkable run to the semifinal round of the College World Series.
The Diamond Hogs wrapped up the 2025 season with an impressive record of 43-13 overall, including a commendable 20-10 in Southeastern Conference (SEC) play. This performance highlights their consistency, as it marks the fifth time in six seasons that Arkansas has secured at least 20 wins in league competition. Their strong showing also positioned them with a national RPI ranking of No. 5 and fifth within the SEC.
While the NCAA has yet to release the tournament seeding details, Arkansas is poised to potentially host a Super Regional if they advance further in the tournament. The complete field of 64 teams will be unveiled on Monday at 11 a.m. CT during a broadcast on ESPN.
As the Razorbacks gear up for the tournament, fans and supporters are encouraged to keep an eye on HawgBeat for the latest updates and news surrounding the team’s quest for a coveted College World Series championship. The stage is set for a thrilling tournament, and Razorback supporters are optimistic about their team’s chances.
