The Arizona Wildcats face elimination in the 2025 NCAA baseball tournament after an 18-2 loss to the North Carolina Tar Heels on June 6, 2025.

The University of Arizona baseball team (44-19) secured two of three games from the No. 1 University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in the Chapel Hill Super Regional from June 7-9, punching its ticket to the College World Series for the first time since 2021 as the Wildcats head back to Omaha,

Arizona made it to Omaha all but one year from 1954-60 and won its three titles in the 1970s and 1980s across five CWS appearances. After missing it 17 consecutive times between 1987 and 2003, the Wildcats returned to the CWS in 2004, marking their first of five appearances this century. Four of those trips have come since 2012.

It’s Game Day! On the road to Omaha! The Arizona Wildcats (43-19) are one win away from the College World Series, but to get there it has to beat the North Carolina Tar Heels (46-14) in Game 3 of the NCAA Baseball Tournament’s Super Regionals.
