A record-tying five of the region’s 19 Division 1 teams won their respective conference championships and earned a “Road to Omaha,” finishing their seasons among the final 64 playing baseball in 2025 this past weekend. The New England season ended in NCAA Regionals, but not until after all five racked up at least 30 wins apiece en route to returning to the national stage.
Northeastern had the longest run of the bunch, breaking a 15-game losing streak in regional contests that dated back to 1973 on Saturday before falling to Mississippi State on Sunday. The Huskies carried the banner for New England all season long as they reached a No. 18 national ranking last week and narrowly missed becoming the second team from the region to post a 50-win season in four years.
“You can’t measure it. It’s real,” Northeastern coach Mike Glavine (Billerica, Mass.) said of what made this team and season special. “It’s not a stopwatch, it’s not a radar gun. You have to be around us all the time to just see it and feel it, what these guys are about and why they’re winning. … These guys just made history in a program that’s been around for 105 years. … They left a legacy that’s unmarked.”
NEBJ rounds up the regional action for the Huskies and their four local counterparts from this past weekend.
