Game notes

* The Gators were undefeated against East Carolina prior to their loss on Friday. Florida’s four previous meetings vs. ECU (4-0) are its most against any team in the Conway Regional.

* Florida’s 17-straight NCAA Tournament bids is tied for the most in the nation since 2008, as O’Sullivan has never missed the postseason in his 18 years at the helm. Fresh off back-to-back College World Series appearances (2023-24), the Gators are hoping to secure their 13th all-time Super-Regional berth, featuring their 11th in the last 16 NCAA Tournaments. Making their 40th Regional appearance, Florida is 137-88 (.609) in the NCAA Tournament and 90-52 at Regionals (.634) dating back to 1958.

* Entering NCAA Regionals with the No. 17 RPI and No. 3 strength of schedule in the country, Florida sits at No. 17 in the D1Baseball Top 25 and Baseball America polls. Ranked as highly as No. 12 nationally per Baseball America, the Gators also sit at No. 14 via Perfect Game, No. 15 with the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association and No. 18 at USA Today.
