Talk of Power Conferences Taking over CWS Proves Premature
- The 2025 College World Series opened at Charles Schwab Field in Omaha with teams from six conferences and one independent program competing.
- This edition continues amid talk that Power Four conferences would dominate due to their investments, but none of the teams in 2025 were finalists the prior year.
- Key players include four MLB.com first-round draft prospects, such as LSU’s Kade Anderson and Arizona’s Brendan Summerhill, highlighting diverse talent across programs.
- Kevin Schnall, Coastal Carolina’s coach and former assistant to Gary Gilmore, said success depends on assembling the best team, not just top players, and expressed skepticism about power conference inevitability.
- This variety and competition suggest a positive outlook for college baseball's broader field, with roster and scholarship changes supporting diverse program growth through at least 2035 in Omaha.
