The Alabama baseball team will begin their 5th season under coach Brad Bohannon on Friday, February 18th when they host Xavier for a three game series. The Tide is coming off their first regional appearance since 2014 and looks to build on that success. Last year’s squad finished 32-26 overall and 12-17 in the SEC. Bama won two games in the SEC Tournament to secure a regional bid. Host Louisiana Tech ended Alabama’s season in an elimination game by a score of 10-8.
The Tide coaching staff underwent some changes in the off season, bringing back former volunteer assistant Matt Reida to replace Jerry Zuli and brought in former Auburn All-American Hunter Morris as the volunteer coach.
