2014 Conference USA Baseball Tournament


The 2014 Conference USA Baseball Tournament will be held from May 21 through May 25 at Pete Taylor Park in Hattiesburg, Mississippi. The annual tournament determines the conference champion of the Division I Conference USA for college baseball. The tournament champion will receive the league's automatic bid to the 2014 NCAA Division I Baseball Tournament. This is the last of 19 athletic championship events held by the conference in the 2013–14 academic year.
The tournament was established in 1996, Conference USA's first season of play. Tulane and Rice have won the most championships, with five. Among current, returning teams, only Marshall has never won a title. The conference adds eight new teams for 2014.

The top eight finishers from the regular season were seeded one through eight. The tournament returned to a double-elimination format, previously used from 1996 through 2010.
