After a disappointing series at lowly Georgia to finish the regular season, [B]it is no surprise that the Kentucky baseball team has been left out of the NCAA Tournament field. [/B]
The Wildcats finished the season at 31-25 and 13-17 in the Southeastern Conference. The team held a strong tournament resume, with 16 wins coming over teams with top 50 RPI’s. UK finished the regular season with a No. 20 RPI.
The deciding factor was almost certainly losing the final series to Georgia, who finished 5-23 in the conference.
