*Ineligible for postseason play due to Division I transition

The 2014 Southland Conference Baseball Tournament was held from May 21–24. The top eight regular season finishers of the league's fourteen teams met in the double-elimination tournament held at Bear Stadium on the campus of Central Arkansas University in Conway, Arkansas. The event returned to a campus environment for one year before again being played at neutral Sugar Land, Texas in 2015 and 2016. Southeastern Louisiana won their first tournament championship and earned the conference's automatic bid to the 2014 NCAA Division I Baseball Tournament.[2][3][4][5]

Seeding and format

The top eight finishers from the regular season will be seeded one through eight. They will play a two bracket, double-elimination tournament, with the winner of each bracket meeting in a single championship final. Abilene Christian and Incarnate Word were ineligible for postseason play as they transition from Division II.
