"It's always good to see your name on the television. I know our guys are excited, when our name finally popped up, we were the last one. It's always a good feeling, it's what we've worked the whole year to do and really excited about going back to Karsten," said Alabama head coach Jay Seawell.

In addition to the program's 16th consecutive appearance in the NCAA Regional round, this year's selection marks the program's 24th appearance overall. Alabama has won the regional round four times in its history, in 2009, 2012, 2013 and in 2014.
