The 2017 Stag Baseball team with the mission to try and repeat their MAAC title, has received votes in Collegiate Baseball newspaper’s Fabulous 40 NCAA Division I Pre-season Poll presented by Big League Chew bubble gum. The Stags are the only representative in the MAAC and was one of 131 schools to garner at least one vote in the poll.
“It certainly is a value based on last year’s success of winning the MAAC Championship,” Head Coach Bill Currier said. “We’re grateful for our success last year but it certainly means way more at the end of the year that we are in that category of being a high ranked team.”
