SALT LAKE CITY – The 2022 WCC baseball tournament is set for another year at Banner Island Ballpark in Stockton, California.
This year’s tournament features an expanded six-team field. The WCC only had four of its 10-members qualify for the league tournament in previous seasons.

The 2022 WCC baseball tournament winner clinches an automatic berth to the NCAA Tournament.
BYU earned the four-seed in the six-team field. The Cougars have won nine of their last ten WCC games under the direction of interim head coach Trent Pratt. Pratt took over for Mike Littlewood, who resigned on April 11.
Since Pratt took over, BYU is 16-8 overall under his watch.
The 2022 WCC baseball tournament begins on Wednesday, May 25, with single-elimination opening-round games. Then the double-elimination portion of the bracket starts on Thursday, May 26, to Saturday, May 28.
All of the games will be streamed on the WCC Network.
