The 2024 NCAA Men's College World Series[a] is the final stage of the 2024 NCAA Division I baseball tournament. It is scheduled from June 14 through 24 at Charles Schwab Field Omaha in Omaha, Nebraska. This will mark the 77th edition of the College World Series and 74th time the event was held in Omaha.
The tournament will feature eight teams in two double elimination brackets with the two winners meeting in a best-of-three championship series.
Background
The top four national seeds qualified for the 2024 College World Series, with Arkansas being the highest ranked national seed to be eliminated, losing in their Fayetteville regional. Of the 8 teams in Omaha, 4 come from the SEC (three from the conference's East Division, one from the West Division), and 4 from the ACC (two from its Coastal Division, two from the Atlantic Division). It is the first time since the tournament expanded to eight teams in 1950 that only two conferences were represented in the College World Series.[1] The 2024 MCWS became the first time ever that the first two games were capped with a Walk-off hit after Tennessee hit a walk off single to defeat Florida State in Game 2. The following day, history continued as Kentucky hit a walk off homerun to become the third walk off hit in as many games.

Notes
- ^ While the event's official name has been "NCAA Men's College World Series" since no later than 2008, the 2022 edition was the first in which the NCAA consistently included the word "Men's" in the event branding.
