SCU sent to the Arkansas regional along with Arizona and TCU.
Arkansas is the #1 seed, followed by TCU, Arizona and SCU in that order.
The organizers didn't do Arkansas any favors. TCU beat Arkansas earlier in the year. TCU also lost 2 of 3 to San Diego, a sub-.500 team that played SCU pretty evenly (each team won a 10-6 game, then USD had a narrow extra innings win over SCU earlier in the year when SCU had some injured regulars). And Arizona beat #2 Tennessee earlier in the year and split with Stanford. Based on the iterative strength ratings, the four teams are:
Arkansas (#6)
TCU (#18)
Arizona (#37)
SCU (#58)
It could get interesting...

Fullerton State, bad memories of past games against them in the NCAA's.
Looks like a good pool for Stanford. Here are the iterative strength ratings:
Stanford (#9)
Texas A&M (#31)
Fullerton (#53)
San Jose State (#93)
