Athletics
Baseball
Coach Chuck Bradley has shepherded the Vermont Tech Baseball program to regional prominence in his five seasons at the helm. For many years, Vermont Tech played its baseball season only in the Fall. Traditionally, the team played a six week, sixteen game fall season. No more. Baseball has arrived-- big time--at Vermont Tech.
The 2006-07 academic year witnessed Vermont Tech's entry into the NAIA and the Sunrise Conference. Accompanying this move was the establishment of a spring baseball season, in addition to the traditional fall season. In 2007-08 the baseball team will played a full 50 game schedule, evenly divided between spring and fall.
If you love baseball, Vermont Tech is a great place to play. You'll be in action for nearly seven months of the academic year. Our home field, cared for painstakingly by Coach Bradley himself, is one of the most beautiful small college fields in all of New England. When the weather prohibits outside practice, the team moves indoors into the SHAPE facility.
