Championship Kicks Off at Brooks Field

The 2026 Colonial Athletic Association (CAA) Baseball Championship opened Wednesday at Brooks Field in Wilmington, North Carolina, marking the start of a week‑long battle among six contenders.

Top‑seeded Campbell entered the tournament as the favorite after finishing the regular season atop the South Division with a 26‑4 record, breaking the CAA record for conference wins in a season.

Defending champion Northeastern, the North Division champion at 22‑8, also looms as a strong threat as it looks to repeat its 2025 triumph.

Monmouth, in its fourth year as a league member, is making its first CAA Tournament appearance, while Charleston is seeking its first title since 2014 after winning eight of its last eleven games.

Hofstra hopes to replicate its 2022 league‑title run, and UNCW, a perennial participant with eight tournament titles, aims to add another chapter to its storied history.

All games will be streamed live on FloCollege, giving fans nationwide access to the action, with the championship game scheduled for Saturday at 5 p.m.
