"I think this, this thing this weekend will rival any sporting event that's happened here in Lawrence at the University of Kansas." 247sports.com/college/kansas…

Here's the average RPI of each NCAA Tournament Regional. KU's Lawrence regional is the lowest average and one of four below 40.00. It's also the only regional where three teams (Kansas (19), Arkansas (21) and Missouri State (23)) are all top-25 in RPI.

Here is a broader schedule for the Lawrence Regional.

WATCH: Dan Fitzgerald, players, Travis Goff react to Kansas baseball's NCAA Tournament draw 247sports.com/college/kansas…

RPI ranks. KU - 19th Arkansas - 21st Missouri State - 23rd Northeastern - 88th

Dan Fitzgerald’s initial reaction and comments to the team/fans. He reflected on how far KU has come and kept “enjoying it” (the ride, hosting, etc) above all. He’ll speak with the media shortly.

Kansas baseball reacts to receiving the 15-seed. KU players visibly reacted in disappointment as the Jayhawks dropped below the 13 and 14-seed lines.

KU's Lawrence regional: (15) Kansas Northeastern Missouri State Arkansas

Kansas and West Virginia at 15 and 16 is completely disgusting work by the committee. Shameful.

Both KU and WVU will be the bottom two host seeds in the NCAA tournament.

There have been some audible gasps and reactions in the room as Kansas baseball is dropping as low as the 14-seed line.

Kansas baseball is ready for the NCAA Tournament reveal!
