The 2022 Southland Conference baseball tournament was held from May 19 through 21 and May 26 to 28. The top eight regular season finishers of the league's thirteen teams met in the double-elimination tournament. McNeese State and Southeastern Louisiana were the top two seeds in the conference, so all first-round games were played at Joe Miller Ballpark in Lake Charles, Louisiana, and Pat Kenelly Diamond at Alumni Field in Hammond, Louisiana. The finals were held Miller Park in Lake Charles.
Southeastern Louisiana won the tournament and earned the conference's automatic bid to the Auburn Regional of the 2022 NCAA Division I baseball tournament.[1] [2]
