The Crimson Tide, which is 47-9 overall and was 21-6 and finished second in the SEC Tournament, will be joined in Tuscaloosa by Texas (38-18), Chattanooga (30-22) and Mississippi Valley State (37-14). It will try to extend a period of home-field dominance.
This will be Alabama’s 11th straight NCAA Tournament appearance under coach Pat Murphy and the fifth straight year the school has hosted a regional. In each of the past four seasons, the Tide has won the regional. The team is 26-1 at home this season.
