The 2013 Southland Conference baseball tournament was held from May 22 through 25. The top eight regular season finishers of the league's ten teams will meet in the double-elimination tournament, which was held at Constellation Field in Sugar Land, Texas. The event returned to a neutral site after two seasons on campus. In the championship game, seventh-seeded Central Arkansas defeated fourth-seeded Southeastern Louisiana, 4-0, to win its first tournament championship. As a result, Central Arkansas earned the conference's automatic bid to the 2013 NCAA Division I baseball tournament.[1] [2] [3]
The top eight finishers from the regular season were seeded one through eight. They played a two bracket, double-elimination tournament, with the winner of each bracket meeting in a single championship final.
