Historical Note

Baseball was the first organized athletic activity on campus beginning in 1865-1866 with the Star Baseball Club. The 1884-1885 team became the first to compete with a intercollegiate schedule. Michigan State baseball teams have won three Big Ten titles (1954,1971,1979), appeared in four NCAA tournaments (1954, 1971, 1978,1979,), and appeared in the College World Series in 1954.
