2021 OVC Baseball Championship

The 2021 OVC Baseball Championship was held May 27-30 at The Ballpark at Jackson in Jackson, Tennessee.   It marked the return to the venue that previously hosted the OVC Championship from 2010-16.

Southeast Missouri topped Murray State 10-1 in the title game to win its fourth OVC Tournament Championships (1998, 2002, 2016, 2021).

The Ballpark at Jackson opened in 1998 and has a seating capacity of 6,000. The venue hosted the 1999 and 2011 Southern League All-Star Games. In 2017 and 2018, The Ballpark at Jackson won back-to-back Sports Field of the Year honors from the Tennessee Turfgrass Association. The back-to-back victories marked the first time that any facility in the Volunteer State won the award in consecutive seasons.
 
Jackson is located in the heart of West Tennessee halfway between Memphis and Nashville conveniently on Interstate 40.

The event has been held at four neutral site locations after moving from the campus of the regular season champions in 2001. The event has been held in Paducah, Kentucky (2001-09), Jackson, Tennessee (2010-16), Oxford, Alabama (2017-18) and Marion, Illinois (2019) before returning to Jackson.
