The NCAA bracket is out:

Stanford is seeded #10 and will take on #7 GCU.  I had hoped they might get a top-8 seed, but their results were not consistent enough, I guess.

They did beat GCU at home 4-1 a little over a week ago, winning the 1s through 4s.  (Hopefully we have enough depth next year to have five solid teams.)  And fortunately they don't have to play early in the morning the first day (12 noon PDT, Friday, May 5th Wednesday, May 3rd).

I really wish they had kept the double-elimination format.
