Friday's announcement puts Arizona and state-of-the-art Hi Corbett Field in the running to host both NCAA Regionals and NCAA Super Regionals during the 2021 postseason. Of the 20 selected sites, the committee will choose 16 to host regional-round games. Eight of those 16 regional sites will host super regionals.
