During the broadcast of the CWRU-Chicago series, it was suggested that Chicago will return to UAA for baseball in 2025.

Six teams would mean an autobid, yes?

On that note...........CWRU's current baseball schedule shows a series with Chicago as a UAA series.

If that's true, then yes indeed, the UAA will now have six members for that sport.

So..........based on that......perhaps Pat Coleman could confirm for us whether the UAA champ will have an autobid to the d3 playoffs.

Any word?

Gang,

To follow up, I just spoke to a high ranking source at CWRU, and yes, Chicago is now a baseball member of the UAA, and the UAA is now an NCAA AQ in baseball and softball.

yup, Division III dropping its AQ minimum from 7 teams to 6 was key for the UAA getting baseball and softball AQs. They'll have 6 for baseball and 7 for softball - Rochester will remain in the Liberty League for both sports.

Chicago will make its UAA baseball debut at Brandeis with a 4 game series in Waltham, MA with 1 game on Friday, March 28, a doubleheader on Saturday, March 29, and a game on Sunday, March 30.

UAA baseball conference play will consist of 4 game weekends, while softball conference play will consist of 3 game weekends-- as the softball conference has 1 extra team.  Carnegie Mellon does not participate in baseball in the UAA.

Actually, CWRU's softball schedule reflects otherwise.

It does indeed show six softball opponents (in a seven team UAA conference schedule).  However, it shows Carnegie-Mellon to be one of those UAA series opponents, and not Rochester.

See here.

Wash U-St. Louis 21-22 MAR
Emory 4-5 APR
NYU 11-12 APR
Chicago 18-19 APR
Brandeis 25-26 APR
Carnegie-Mellon 8-9 MAY

For baseball, the five opponents for a six team conference schedule are WashU, Emory, Chicago, NYU, and Brandeis.

Either way though, great to see the UAA finally be an AQ in every team sport that they sponsor!
