The 2022 ACC Baseball Championship will once again head to Charlotte and Truist Field. It was quite the 2021 season for ACC baseball. There were surprise teams – Notre Dame and Pitt. Duke came away with a conference championship. Then, eight teams emerged from that battle to advance into the NCAA tournament. Notre Dame, Duke, Georgia Tech, Miami, NC State, Florida State, North Carolina and Virginia all got invitations for a shot at the College World Series (CWS)..
NC State and Virginia made it through the tournament grind and advanced to the CWS. Both the Pack and Hoos delivered some amazing baseball right up until the end.

Along the way Florida State sophomore catcher Matheu Nelson was named the 2021 ACC Player of the Year. Nelson was also named first team All-America by Collegiate Baseball. The Publication also named five other conference players to their second and third team rosters. Seven conference players earned All-America honors from both the NCBWA and Baseball America
2022 ACC Baseball Championship
To wrap up the season four ACC baseball players were selected in the first round of the MLB Draft. A total of 63 conference players picked overall.
You know the next season can’t be far away. Especially when we start talking about where the 2022 ACC Baseball Championship will be held. The conference had a very easy choice in returning to Truist Field. The home of the Charlotte Knights will be the site for a second consecutive year.

Nearly 59,000 were in attendance over the 2021 week long tournament. That’s the highest since 2015.
The Knights’ stadium capacity is 10,200. It hosted the Triple-A All Star Game and also more than 25 college games.
If we had one request of the conference. Cover the opening round games of the tournament on the ACC Network rather than ACC Network Extra.
