team consistently ranked among the best in the nation.
In 2001, Tulane set a school record for wins and led the nation with 55 and made it to the College World Series in Omaha
only to blow an 8-0 lead against Stanford University
and lose the game 13-11. The Green Wave won its next game against Nebraska
6-5, but was eliminated in the third game by Cal-State Fullerton.
In 2005, the Green Wave had its best season in school history. Tulane started the season ranked first in the nation and held the top spot throughout most of the regular season. The Green Wave entered the postseason ranked No. 1 and beat Rice University
to win its Super Regional. Tulane advanced to the College World Series
for the second time in school history. The Green Wave defeated Oregon State, 3-1, in its first game, but then fell 5-0 to Texas, the eventual national champion. In an elimination game against Baylor University
, the Green Wave led 7-0 in the 7th inning before the Bears scored 8 runs in the final three innings to win the game. Brian Bogusevic was named Louisiana Pitcher of the Year, was named to four All-American teams, including Louisville Slugger's first team, and was a semifinalist for three national awards. He was taken in the first round of the 2005 draft by the Houston Astros
. Pitcher/first baseman Micah Owings
was named Conference USA
and Louisiana Player of the Year. He was drafted in the 3rd round by the Arizona Diamondbacks
. Third baseman Brad Emaus was named Conference USA
and Louisiana Freshman of the Year. Head Coach Rick Jones was named Louisiana Coach of the Year.
In 2006, the Tulane baseball team returned to New Orleans after spending the Fall semester graciously hosted by Texas Tech University
in Lubbock, Texas. With the demolition of old Turchin stadium delayed following Hurricane Katrina
, the Green Wave were forced to play their home games at nearby Zephyr Stadium in Metairie, Louisiana
. Despite the distractions and disruptions of their day-to-day lives, the Green Wave finished the regular season 39-17, and was good for 3rd place in Conference USA with a 15-9 record. Tulane made it to the NCAA regionals before losing to Ole Miss to end the season.
The 2007 season saw the long-term effects of Hurricane Katrina finally wear on the team. With the demolition of the old Turchin Stadium finally completed and eventual new stadium construction underway, the Wave played a 2nd straight season at Zephyr Stadium. A solid 28-11 start to the season (including a season sweep of in-state rival LSU) was followed by a 6-15 limp to the finish line. The Green Wave failed to garner an NCAA bid for the first time since 1997.
The 2008 season figures to have a more positive outlook as Tulane baseball returns to play at a brand new, $7.5 million dollar on-campus stadium, one of the most beautiful and best in college baseball. Greer Field at Turchin Stadium (GFTS) was built on top of the old stadium grounds. The stadium features a seating expansion to 5,000 seats, four luxury box suites, a partially covered seating area with 2,700 chairback seats, as well as a new press box. FieldTurf, an artificial playing surface recently popularized by professional football, has replaced the natural grass surface at GFTS; only the mound is of natural dirt. The Teresa Sofio Hackshack, Tulane baseball indoor hitting practice facility, remains in its usual place to the far left of the outfield.
Despite its recent post-Katrina struggles, Tulane was recently recognized by Baseball America
Magazine as one of the top college baseball programs in the country since the NCAA expanded from 48 to 64 teams in 1999. Baseball America bestowed an "A" rating to Tulane; the ratings were formulated by evaluating a programs' national impact, overall competitiveness, fans and facilities and academics. Only 15 other teams were given an "A" rating; other notables include C-USA-brethren Rice University and in-state rival LSU
