Rankings from D1Baseball


The 2024 Atlantic Coast Conference baseball tournament was held May 21–26, 2024 at Truist Field in Charlotte, North Carolina. The annual tournament determines the official conference champion of the Division I Atlantic Coast Conference for college baseball.[2][3]

The tournament has been held every year but two since 1973, with Clemson winning eleven championships prior this, the most all-time. Georgia Tech has won nine championships, and Florida State has won eight titles since its entry to the league in 1992, matching defending champion North Carolina's total. Recent entrants Virginia Tech, Boston College, Pittsburgh, Notre Dame and Louisville have never won the event.

The Clemson Tigers were the defending tournament champions but were unable to defend their crown, as they did not advance out of their group after finishing 1–1. Sixth seed Duke won their second ACC Tournament title after going 2–0 in their group, defeating Miami in the Semifinals, and topping fifth-seed Florida State in the Final 16–4.

Format and seeding

[edit]

The winner of each seven team division and the top ten other teams based on conference winning percentage, regardless of division, from the conference's regular season will be seeded one through twelve. Seeds one and two are awarded to the two division winners. Teams are then divided into four pools of three teams each, with the winners advancing to single elimination bracket for the championship.[4]

If a 1–1 tie were to occur among all three teams in a pool, the highest seeded team would have advanced to the semifinals.[5] Because of this, seeds 5–12 must win both pool play games to advance to the single-elimination bracket, and seeds 1–4 must only win the game against the winner of the game between the other two teams in the pool to advance. For example, if the 12 seed beats the 8 seed in the first game, then the winner of the 12 seed versus 1 seed advances, and the 8 seed versus 1 seed game has no effect on which team advances.
