Baseball
The Trinity baseball squad reached unprecedented heights this spring
with a best-ever record of 45-1 including a second New England Small
College Athletic Conference (NESCAC) Championship title, a third NCAA
Division III Regional Championship crown, and the first NCAA Division
III National Team Championship title in College history in any sport.
The Bantams breezed through the NESCAC East Division with a 12-0 mark
and the regular season with a 34-0 record, and broke the Division III
record for fastest start and longest winning streak with 44 wins to
start the season. Trinity recovered from its first loss of the year,
4-3, to Johns Hopkins on the final day of the Division III World Series
to score two runs in the bottom of the ninth inning for a national
title-clinching, 5-4 triumph over Johns Hopkins in the finals. Trinity
finished ranked No. 1 in both the American Baseball Coaches Association
(ABCA), and D3Baseball.com National Polls.
