NCAA DI Baseball Program

Nicholls State University Baseball - LA

Nicholls State University baseball competes at the NCAA DI level in Southland Conference and is based in Thibodaux, LA. Campus enrollment is about 4,737 students. The published acceptance rate is 91%. Recent baseball results include 2026: 25-26. Listed coaches include Brent Haring, Tyler Shipley, Kade Trichel, Hunter Haas, and Andy Miller.

Nicholls rebounded from 17–32 in 2025 to 25–26 overall and 15–13 in Southland play in 2026 under Brent Haring. On the Baseball Forward podcast after that season, Haring said the Colonels won't make a living in the transfer portal and see their niche in the junior college ranks, balanced with athletic high school recruits, calling it "an old school approach to a new school game." Families weighing a lean 16-player 2027 roster should expect openings, especially on the mound, where as many as six spots could turn over.
