West Virginia Tech University Baseball is set to compete in the Clash of Conferences down in Tennessee once again this season ! February 6th and 7th are the dates and fingers crossed 🤞 that Mother Nature cooperates !
Home opener is set for February 21st in Beckley at Linda K Epling Stadium 🏟..
53-5 is a gaudy record and we tagged GGC with one of those five setbacks last month in Beckley!
Jeremy Sheetinger in simple terms is a Class Act ! This young Man is a tremendous ambassador for the game of College Baseball. His hard hitting squad is a fun watch and easy to pull for, so we are hoping for nothing but the best for GGC out in Idaho.
Way back on February 8th we matched up with Brad Shelton and his Cumberlands squad. Shelton is another individual who represents the game in the best way possible.
The gentleman who is in charge of everything out in Idaho for the World Series is another friend of both the West Virginia Tech University Baseball program. Ronnie Palmer is also part of the extended OneofUs.Care Family 👪.
Palmer is just one of many people that I’ve met through the Baseball tree 🌳 that is Lawrence Nesselrodt, the long time Skipper of West Virginia Tech University Golden Bears 🐻.
Palmer left such an impression on me that he’s on a short list of folks that I would welcome another opportunity to work together.
We are incredibly proud of our Baseball family 👪 at WVU-T and it extends to a great deal of the Country.
While we wish we could be in Idaho this week, we’re thrilled that Jeremy and Brad made it and rest comfortably in knowing that Ronnie will take care of them !

West Virginia Tech University Golden Bears 🐻 Baseball ⚾️ finished up strong but came up just short in the pursuit of Brescia University for the sixth and final spot in the River States Conference post season.
The team was looking to make a second straight trip to Chillicothe, Ohio but suffered back to back heartbreaking 💔 loses to #2 Indiana University – Southeast on the final day.
The team finished up the season by going 10-10 after being swept up in Kokomo, dropping them to 9-16 on the campaign. The stretch included eight contests against ranked teams, including a two game split with #2 in the Nation, Georgia Gwinnett College.
