Following the 2009 ACC Baseball Championship, an ACC-record tying seven teams landed berths in the NCAA Tournament, with conference champion Virginia and North Carolina advancing to the College World Series at Omaha, Neb. Ten ACC teams have reached the College World Series over the last four seasons (2006-09).
