The Louisville Cardinals have attained that goal six times in the last 18 full seasons, including five appearances since 2013. Since first appearing at the CWS in 2007 at Rosenblatt Stadium, Omaha has served as an integral part of the baseball culture at Louisville and that will continue into the 2026 season. University of Louisville n gocards.com 4 gocards.com n University of Louisville 5 Road to Omaha Goes Through Louisville During each of the Cardinals’ six CWS seasons, they hosted NCAA Championship games at Jim Patterson Stadium. Overall, Louisville has hosted 16 different rounds of NCAA postseason baseball in the last 18 full seasons – NCAA Super Regionals in 2007, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2019 and 2025 and NCAA Regionals in 2009, 2010, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2019 and 2022. The Cardinals are 39-11 all- time in postseason home games. University of Louisville n gocards.com 6 gocards.com n University of Louisville 7 Next >
