NCAA Baseball Regional Capsules: Atlanta Regional

Published by on May 30, 2011

Over the last decade, the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets have been known as a team that is a regular season power and postseason pushover.

Don't get me wrong. They are a great program. they have hosted more than their share of regional and super regionals in recent years. They also made the College World Series in 2002 and 2006. You just expect more when you are talking about a perennial top-10 team.

For every year like 2002 or 2006, there is a year like 2009 when Tech lost a home regional to upstart Southern Miss, a team that nearly missed the NCAA field altogether.

The 2011 regional they have been given is a tough one. Southern Miss is back, but this time they are solidly in the field and have their eyes on another run to the College World Series. They have also been stuck with Mississippi State, a team from the powerful SEC and the Ohio Valley Conference champion, Austin Peay.

Let's go team by team and preview the regional this weekend.
