The University of Wisconsin-Whitewater baseball team, the defending NCAA Division III national runner-up and the favorite to repeat as conference champion, begins its 2025 season Friday, Feb. 28.
The Warhawks are picked to finish first in the Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (WIAC) this spring and are ranked No. 1 in the D3baseball.com/National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association Preseason National Poll.
Last year, the Warhawks won the WIAC title by finishing 19-5 in conference play and 45-12 overall. UW-Whitewater won NCAA regional and super regional championships on its way to the NCAA Division III national championship series, where they were outlasted in a best-of-three series to finish as national runner-up.
John Vodenlich, a 2024 American Baseball Coaches Association Hall of Fame inductee, enters his 22nd year as head coach of the Warhawks.
UW-Whitewater begins its season Feb. 28 at Asbury University (Ky.) and plays its first home game March 26 against St. Mary’s (Minn.). For a complete season schedule, visit uwwsports.com.
