For the third time in his career, former head baseball coach Randy Mazey has been named the 2024 ABCA East Region Coach of the Year, sponsored by ATEC Sports. In his final season, Mazey led WVU to new heights as the Mountaineers reached an NCAA Super Regional for the first time in program history.
In just more than two months, WVU will play its most eagerly anticipated home opener since 1998 when the No. 11-ranked Mountaineers faced No. 1 Ohio State under the lights at what was then known as Mountaineer Field.
Traditional season tickets are still available at this time and can be purchased for as low as $399 for the Mountaineers' seven-game home schedule at WVUGAME.com.
Swimming and diving head coach Brent MacDonald announced former Mountaineer swimming team captain and multi-time Big East champion Michael Walker will join the staff as an associate head coach.
The Mountaineers will open the fall season in Independence, Minnesota, at Windsong Farm Golf Club, competing in The Gopher Invitational for the fifth time in school history.
