The 2019 NCAA Division III baseball tournament will be played at the end of the 2019 NCAA Division III baseball season to determine the 44th national champion of college baseball at the NCAA Division III (D-III) level. The tournament will conclude with eight teams competing at Perfect Game Field at Veterans Memorial Stadium in Cedar Rapids, Iowa for the championship. Eight regional tournaments will be held to determine the participants in the World Series.

Contents

This will be the first year in which the regional tournaments will be contested in a "Super Regional" format, mirroring the Division I and II tournaments. [1] Each "Super Regional" will be split into two regionals, 13 consisting of four teams to be contested in double-elimination format, with the other 3 consisting of 2 teams to be contested in a best-of-five format, for a total of 58 teams in the tournament. The regionals will be followed by the "Super Regional" round, which will be contested as a best-of-three series between the two regional winners for the spot in the D-III World Series.

This will be the first D-III World Series contested at Veterans Memorial Stadium in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, which won the hosting rights for the D-III World Series from 2019 to 2022. The event will be hosted by the American Rivers Conference, which was known as the Iowa Intercollegiate Athletic Conference when hosting rights were awarded in 2017. [2]
