🔼 Congrats, Coach. Legendary former Wichita State head baseball coach Gene Stephenson has been named the 2026 recipient of the Wayne Graham Award for Teaching Excellence by the College Baseball Foundation.

A 2014 College Baseball Hall of Fame inductee and three-time NCAA Coach of the Year, Stephenson coached 33 future Major Leaguers and 54 All-Americans.

🔼 Welcome to Wichita. Wichita State baseball announced the addition of Jack Hogan, a Colorado native who spent last season with Southeast CC. Hogan, a first baseman and outfielder, brings a powerful bat to the lineup. He earned NJCAA All-American honors after belting 26 homers at Southeast CC.
