Brackets Released
The Colorado High School Activities Association announced the 2026 Class 5A baseball regional tournament brackets on May 13, 2026, outlining a 32‑team field split across eight regions and detailing the path teams must follow to reach the championship series.
Vista PEAK Prep, representing Aurora and seeded No. 20, is scheduled to meet fourth‑seeded Regis Jesuit in the opening round, a matchup highlighted by the bolded Aurora entries in the draw.
Qualifiers for the regional tournaments will be determined by a combination of league championships and the Regional Power Index, while full game schedules and start times are slated for release in the coming weeks.
Courtney Oakes, sports editor for the Aurora Sentinel, covered the bracket release and explained how these regional results will feed into the upcoming 5A Championship Series.
