Florida baseball will find out on Sunday, May 25, whether it has secured home-field advantage in the 2025 NCAA Tournament before seeds for the full 64-team field are announced the next day.

The Florida Gators (38-20) knocked off South Carolina 11-3 on May 20 in Hoover, Ala., to start the SEC Tournament but followed it up with a 3-1 loss to Ole Miss on May 21.

Overall, Florida has won 18 of its last 24 games and 15 of its last 20 SEC games.

Florida is set to become the first SEC team to reach the NCAA Tournament after starting SEC play 2-10 or worse since 1992 league expansion.

The turnaround has occurred due to improvements both on the mound and at the plate. In UF's 1-11 start to SEC action, the Gators pitched to a 9.63 ERA, .311 batting average against and 110-to-75 strikeout-to-walk ratio in 100 innings. They also batted just .244 with 14 homers and 10 steals in that span.

In UF's final 18 SEC regular-season games, Gator pitchers cut their ERA by more than half at 3.76 while producing a .228 BAA and 197-to-71 K-to-BB ratio over 153 innings. The offense has exploded in that time as well, batting .296 with 26 homers and 32 stolen bases.
