2013 NCBA Division II World Series

The 2013 National Club Baseball Association (NCBA) Division II World Series was played at Brooks Stadium in Paducah, KY from May 17 to May 21. The sixth tournament's champion was Kennesaw State University. The Most Valuable Player was Aaron Moore of Kennesaw State University.[1]

Format

edit

The format is similar to the NCAA College World Series in that eight teams participate in two four-team double elimination brackets. There are a few differences between the NCAA and the NCBA format. One of which is that the losers of Games 1–4 move to the other half of the bracket. Another difference is that the NCBA plays a winner take all for its national title game while the NCAA has a best-of-3 format to determine its national champion. Another difference which is between NCBA Division I and II is that Division II games are 7 innings while Division I games are 9 innings.
