The Tulane Green Wave baseball team represents Tulane University in NCAA Division I college baseball. The Green Wave baseball team competes in the American Athletic Conference and play their home games on campus at Greer Field at Turchin Stadium. They are managed by head coach Travis Jewett, who took over the program in 2016 coming from Vanderbilt University where he was named one of the top assistants ready to lead in college baseball by multiple publications. In 2016, USA Today named Tulane University one of the top 10 best college baseball programs in the country.
One of the most prestigious universities in the United States (ranked 39th in US News & World Report Best Colleges 2017) is also home to one of the country’s oldest baseball programs as it has enjoyed over 100 years of illustrious baseball history. Tulane University, located in the heart of the Uptown area of New Orleans, La. on the historic St. Charles Ave., first fielded a baseball team in 1893, fifty years after the school opened its doors for the first time. The program got off to a great start, and it hasn’t looked back since.
Over time, the program has seen a multitude of transitions, but one constant has remained: winning. Tulane has captured 15 conference championships in three different leagues. On top of that, Tulane has been a regular in the NCAA postseason, having made 21 NCAA Regional Appearances as well as 3 Super Regionals and 2 trips to the College World Series.
