Hamilton (16-14 overall) is competing in the postseason for the first time after the Continentals finished a team-best second place in the NESCAC West Division and earned the No. 2 seed with a 7-5 division mark. Hamilton hasn't played Trinity since the teams played a doubleheader in Hartford on April 20, 2019.

The Bantams (14-18) tied for third place in the conference's East Division and earned the third seed with a 6-6 division record. Trinity finished the regular season with six straight losses. The Bantams won the last of their four NESCAC titles in 2012.
