Basically 22 of the 1st 25 games are on the road. There are 3 home games in march and the rest start in April.

That's crazy, Idk how these kids keep up with school with a schedule like that.

Tough start with playing all those Fla schools

That's the norm for northern schools. They always play southern schools on the road for the first two months. There is a reason the winner of the CWS is almost always a southern school.

This is unusual? You play mostly on weekends early, and of course spring break. Not sure how this is newsworthy, unless the teams we are playing are stronger or weaker than usual.

Can somebody who follows college baseball tell me who the last 10 NC teams were? Can you tell me how many northern teams make the sweet 16 each year? The last first round draft pick from a northeast university?

Every year.

They work really hard, studying on long bus rides and in hotel rooms and plane lobbies, just like all the other teams.

I don't really follow the tournament but your question and always hearing that southern teams dominate made me want to look.

2015 UVa over Vanderbilt
2014 Vanderbilt over UVa
2013 UCLA over Mississippi State
2012 Arizona over South Carolina
2011 South Carolina over Florida
2010 South Carolina over UCLA
2009 LSU over Texas
2008 Fresno State over Georgia
2007 Oregon State over UNC
2006 Oregon State over UNC
1966 Ohio State over Oklahoma State

Minus 2006 - 2007, the list back until the 1960s is dominated by warm weather teams. From 1947 (first year I saw for the tournament) up until 2015 I counted 9 teams from areas that aren't associated with warm weather.

Sweet 16...
2015 1 or 2 depending on what you consider Maryland (Illinois was the other).
2014 none
2013 1 (Indiana)
2012 2 (St. Johns and Stony Brook)
2011 1, maybe 2 (UConn, Oregon State)
2010 none
2009 none
2008 none
2007 1 if you count Oregon State
2006 1 if you count Oregon State

According to wikipedia the last NE team in the college world series was Stony Brook with the previous team being Maine in 1986.

Finding the last NE university to have a first round player was easy enough. 2015 Chris Shaw from Boston College to SF Giants.

First one that comes to mind is George Springer from UCONN like 3 or 4 years ago. We had Bobby Brownlie a lot of years ago.

I am surprised more northern schools don't drop baseball. I.e. Vermont

Thanks for doing all that work.
