Grand Canyon and Evansville put two national seeds on the brink of elimination from the NCAA regionals. The Lopes won a game in the national tournament for the first time in the program's short Division I history and the Purple Aces got a victory in their first appearance since 2006. Grand Canyon made the short trip to Tucson and beat No. 13 Arizona 9-4 and it was no fluke. The Lopes won two of three against the Wildcats during the regular season. Evansville knocked off No. 16 East Carolina 4-1.
