The winner of the NCAA Kinston Regional advances to one of eight NCAA Super Regionals, scheduled for June 11-14 on campus sites.
Along with East Carolina, NCAA Regionals will also be hosted by Arkansas, Cal State Fullerton, Florida State, Georgia, Georgia Tech, LSU, Miami, Notre Dame, Oklahoma, Ole Miss, Rice, South Carolina, Stanford, Texas, and Virginia.
