Athletics

Here's why we play here...

We have asked our players to name their top reasons for being baseball student-athletes at Alderson-Broaddus College. 

Top Reasons

  • We possess great team chemistry.  Some players call it a brotherhood.  Our players do things together, both on and off campus.
  • We play NCAA Division II baseball in the high profile, 15-member West Virginia Intercollegiate Athletic Conference.
  • We have great facilities, both our ballpark and indoor athletic complex.  Facilities reflect the commitment to a program.
    Our training and weight rooms are larger and better equipped than some Division I schools.
  • A 13:1 student to teacher ratio guarantees that you will receive individualized instruction in your classes.
  • We get to take the classes we want, usually when we want them.
  • We go to school at a residential campus, and our apartment and suite-style housing accommodations are better than traditional residence halls found at most colleges.
  • People on campus and in the community will take a genuine interest in you as a human being.
  • Our athletes, coaches, and support staff pull from the same end. 
  • We want to have the best overall athletic program in our conference.
  • The food in Philippi, the site of the first land battle of the United States' Civil War, is great, and cheap!
  • We are recognized by U.S. News and World Report as a top institution of higher learning.
  • We live in north central West Virginia, where we can golf, fish, swim, hunt, and ski - ALL in the same day.
  • We are wanted and needed here!
