The 2024 NCAA Men's College World Series was the final stage of the 2024 NCAA Division I baseball tournament. It was scheduled from June 14 through 24 at Charles Schwab Field Omaha in Omaha, Nebraska. This marked the 77th edition of the College World Series and 74th time the event was held in Omaha.
The tournament featured eight teams in two double elimination brackets with the two winners meeting in a best-of-three championship series. With the advancement of Texas A&M and Tennessee to the championship series, a school was assured of winning its first ever College World Series championship, making this the first time a College World Series between two teams with no baseball championships since 2014; of the two, only Tennessee appeared in the championship final, doing so in 1951. The championship final saw Tennessee win its first national championship in program history after losing the first game to Texas A&M and then winning the second and third games.
The top four national seeds qualified for the 2024 College World Series, with Arkansas being the highest ranked national seed to be eliminated, losing in their Fayetteville regional. Of the 8 teams in Omaha, 4 come from the SEC (three from the conference's East Division, one from the West Division), and 4 from the ACC (two from its Coastal Division, two from the Atlantic Division). It is the first time since the tournament expanded to eight teams in 1950 that only two conferences were represented in the College World Series.[1] The 2024 MCWS became the first time ever that the first two games were capped with a walk-off hit after Tennessee hit a walk off single to defeat Florida State in Game 2. The following day, history continued as Kentucky hit a walk off homerun to become the third walk off hit in as many games.
