Yea, it's a spring training complex, so there are a surplus of fields. I guess that is why you would hold the tournament at a place where a MLB trains in the spring.

Good, forward thinking.

Trying to find the record for longest 9 inning college game though....

Longest I can find 4 hours and 21 minutes, Miami/Tennessee 2001 CWS. That may just be a CWS record though.

The longest college baseball game was played between Texas and Boston College on May 30, 2009, in a regional NCAA Division I Baseball Championship tournament game at Austin, Texas. Texas won the game, 3-2, in 25 innings as the visiting team under NCAA tournament rules on home-team declaration during a tournament. The game lasted seven hours and three minutes.

I'd love to find the longest 9 inning affair though. 25 innings though is ridiculous.

No video.... :(

Man, that was a GREAT catch there by the Houston 2B.

Some dang good catches in today's game.

Video for USF, UCONN, Cincinnati, and Wichita.

Know your place, muggles!
