The SEC will debut a “strike zone challenge system” in Hoover for the SEC Tournament later this month.
The league made that announcement on Monday evening. It comes as Major League Baseball has had a successful implementation of its ABS system during the 2026 regular season.
The system is still “experimental” according to the SEC’s press release. Each team will begin the game with 3 challenges. Correct challenges will be retained.
“The introduction of this challenge system at the SEC Tournament reflects our continued commitment to innovation,” SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey said in a press release. “This addition represents a continued step forward for our game, aligns more closely with the professional level and supports the development of our student-athletes as they prepare for success at the next level.”

Once a challenge has been called, the location of the pitch will be compared to an “electronic” strike zone. The SEC says it will measure all players prior to the start of the first game in order to determine the “appropriate” strike zone for each player.
The SEC Tournament will take place from May 19-24 in Hoover.
