Rankings from Collegiate Baseball

The 2002 Atlantic Coast Conference baseball tournament was held at the Florida Power Park in St. Petersburg, Florida, from May 21 through 26. Florida State won the tournament and earned the Atlantic Coast Conference's automatic bid to the 2002 NCAA Division I baseball tournament.

Tournament

  • The two teams with the worst records in regular season conference play faced each other in a single elimination situation to earn the 8th spot in the conference tournament.

Seeding procedure

From TheACC.com Archived 2012-11-11 at the Wayback Machine:

On Saturday (The Semifinals) of the ACC Baseball Tournament, the match-up between the four remaining teams is determined by previous opponents. If teams have played previously in the tournament, every attempt will be made to avoid a repeat match-up between teams, regardless of seed. If it is impossible to avoid a match-up that already occurred, then the determination is based on avoiding the most recent, current tournament match-up, regardless of seed. If no match-ups have occurred, the team left in the winners bracket will play the lowest seeded team from the losers bracket.

  • If the winner of winners bracket quarterfinal match loses in the winners bracket semifinal match, that team will play the winner of the finals match for the championship in a winner-take-all situation
