Ryan Copeland has been a game-changer since he led Elk Grove to state 20 years ago. Now he's taking @NIU_Baseball where it hasn't been since 1972 - the NCAA regionals. A look at what @ryancopelandNIU's program has accomplished in 3 short years. https://t.co/jqc6PMHsc3
"It's been such a fun journey. I love these guys so much, and there are a lot of people in our program — alums included — who are really proud of NIU." - @ryancopelandNIU@NIU_Baseball | #MACtion
Eight straight @MACSports series wins. 31 wins overall. MAC Championship bound for the first time since 2019.
@NIU_Baseball is quietly one of the top mid-major teams in the country 🔥

We need you at The Ralph today! Help us honor our senior class on Mother’s Day. Huskies are in 1st place in the MAC, the guys deserve your support. Let’s go!🤘
Senior Cole Smith was listed today among @d1baseball 's Top 50 Second Basemen this morning! Smith is hitting .377/.455/.603 and leads the team with 15 doubles https://t.co/bHpMz0f9xR
While we were playing today, Max Vaisvila made the @d1baseball front page as its top-ranked pitcher from Saturday for his 14-strikeout, 1-hitter vs. BG #HuskieBall https://t.co/Hut8XsoS40
Another outstanding start by @NIU_Baseball's Max Vaisvilla. NIU is now 15-8 overall and 7-4 in the MAC as well after splitting the first two with Bowling Green.
.@NIU_Baseball has promoted assistant Joe Kelch to associate head coach. Missed this a few days ago. Kelch turned down some external overtures over the past couple of weeks.
With their 14 runs today in the win at Bowling Green, the 2025 NIU Huskies have set a new single-season record for runs scored with 410! The previous record of 408 was set back in 2003
