Their journey ended there after losses to Central Missouri and East Stroudsburg, but the run highlights the most success the G-MAC has had since the conference began sponsoring baseball for the 2014 season.
Northwood, who went 40-22 last season, has now been tipped in the conference coaches poll to win the G-MAC North Division again, with Walsh getting the nod to take the South Division. The Timberwolves are also ranked in both Top 25 preseason polls, sitting at No. 8 in the NCBWA and No. 7 in D2 Baseball's poll.
