About

Hamline Baseball has set a goal of raising $20,000 during Fall Athletics Fundraising Week to fund team travel to Arizona and Kansas. Make your gift today and give Hamline Baseball scholar-athletes the edge they need to make this season great.

Hamline Baseball scholar-athletes strive for excellence on and off the field. The team is very proud of their collective efforts to work out, practice, and compete, all while upholding high academic expectations. Baseball scholar-athletes have earned the ABCA Academic Excellence Award the last 4 years for having a team GPA above 3.3.

This year, we are excited to be able to head back to Kansas for two separate weekend trips in February 2025, totaling 6 non-conference games. We are also excited to be able to head back to Tucson, AZ for our spring trip from March 13-23.

Give now, and support Hamline Baseball to get ready for success in the 2025 conference season.

If you are supporting a specific player, make sure to note the player's name in the "In Honor of" section after you complete your gift.

Any dollars raised more than our goal will go toward enhancing the Hamline Baseball program in upcoming seasons. If the trip is canceled for the team or for an individual player for any reason, donations to this campaign will go toward enhancing the Hamline Baseball program in this and upcoming seasons.

Updates

Due to your generosity: 

  • Women’s Basketball met their original goal of $6,000 and increased their goal to $7,000.
  • Men’s Basketball is at 96% of the way to reaching their increased goal of  $10,000 (increased from $8,000) and completed a matching gift, turning $3,000 into $6,000! 
  • Gymnastics is over 70% to their goal and still has $1,885 in matching gift funds available.
  • Men’s and Women’s Swim and Dive is over 50% to their goal, and completed a $1 for $1 match up to $1,000, turning $1,000 into $2,000!
