DIVISION I TEAM PREVIEWS  |  DAY 7 OF 8

GREAT LAKES REGION!

From 3-16 in 2022 to World Series Runner Up in 2023,  not sure we’ll ever see a one year transformation like we did with the Univ. of Wisconsin Whitewater.  After securing their 1st ever Conference Title, the Warhawks headed to Fort Wayne, IN as the #3 seed for the Regional Tournament.  UWW went 3-0 on the weekend, allowing just 4 total runs to secure their 1st ever World Series berth.  Entering as the bottom seed, the Cinderella story continued as they took out #1 seed Utah State, Defending Champ Florida State & former Champion Virginia Tech to reach the Title game. While UWW ultimately fell to Penn State, their 2023 season was one for the memory books.

Heading into 2024 the Great Lakes Region took on some exciting realignment.  Newcomers Ohio State, Miami (OH), Dayton, Ohio & Cincinnati are looking to shake things up! Don’t forget about Michigan, Illinois State, Notre Dame & Wisconsin – all four perennial Playoff teams looking to rebound in 2024.

Be sure to check all the Great Lakes Team Previews to see how everyone’s looking heading into the Spring 2024 season!
