I think that McMurry has the tourney again, the second year of a 2-year contract.

Ralph -
I noticed the following comment on the West Region (NWC) site regarding the site of this year's West Regional.

"Word is coming out that Linfield will once again be hosting a regional this year!  Can't wait!"

Do you have any insight on this?

In 2010 Linfield held the regional. Great facility, great host, beautiful country,,

Several games played in freezing cold rain with the winds blowing. Not baseball weather...
This... is a simple game. You throw the ball. You hit the ball. You catch the ball.  "There are three types of baseball players: those who make things happen, those who watch it happen, and those who wonder what happened."

Does anyone have any more insight on the site of this year's West Regional? 

Per a comment from Ralph Turner:  "I think that McMurry has the tourney again, the second year of a 2-year contract".
Per a comment from Wildcat11:  "Word is coming out that Linfield will once again be hosting a regional this year!  Can't wait!"

I understand that both locations qualify (proper facility, lights, etc.), however the decision is usually made by now.  I expect an announcement will be made soon . . .

El Hombre,

That's the word I'm getting out here is that Linfield will be hosting a regional in 2012.  I think my information is solid but until official word is released we'll just have to wait and see.

George Fox season previews also mentions that Linfield is hosting a regional:

http://athletics.georgefox.edu/sports/bsb/2011-12/releases/preview

"The heart of the Bruins' schedule is the 24-game Northwest Conference slate that will determine the league's automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament.  The Bruins have made eight post-season appearances since becoming eligible for the NCAA playoffs in 2000, winning the national championship in 2004, and would enjoy a return to the West Regionals, which will be hosted this year by Linfield College just 14 miles down the road in McMinnville, Ore."

My two-cents; Concordia-Texas would be terrific. Beautiful new field, AAA quality lights, Austin is a great town. Those in the know needs to give the people at Concordia a "nudge."

I agee Austin with Concordia-Texas would be a perfect choice. Great new field, great city, good weather. Also now a great baseball program with Concordia-Texas making the 2011 West Regionals.

Has CTX put in aa bid?
Nobody ever knows who puts bids in. The only thing the general public hears is who gets the bid. I really prefer a warm weather state over the rain and cold of the Northwest....

Hope the warm weather from 2009 comes back in 2012 and not the cold, wind and rain from 2010.

Lets hope the La Niña starts to subside by May.....

What are the U.S. impacts of La Niña?

La Niña often features drier than normal conditions in the Southwest in late summer through the subsequent winter. Drier than normal conditions also typically occur in the Central Plains in the fall and in the Southeast in the winter. In contrast, the Pacific Northwest is more likely to be wetter than normal in the late fall and early winter with the presence of a well-established La Niña. Additionally, on average La Niña winters are warmer than normal in the Southeast and colder than normal in the Northwest.
