The University of Texas Permian Basin Baseball - TX
The University of Texas Permian Basin baseball competes at the NCAA DII level in Lone Star Conference and is based in Odessa, TX. Campus enrollment is about 3,911 students. The published acceptance rate is 95%. Recent baseball results include 2026: 14-36. Listed coaches include Ryan Van Amburg, Nick Chittum, Anthony Navarrete, and Corbin Montayne.
UT Permian Basin finished 14–36 overall and 14–36 in Lone Star Conference play, a step down from 20–30 in 2025. Ryan Van Amburg now leads the Odessa, Texas, DII Falcons after a June 2026 hire; Baseball Forward lists him as head coach for the next cycle. Stabilizing a thin roster through the coaching change is the immediate story. Families weighing a 24-player 2027 roster should look for early LSC series wins before projecting a climb toward mid-table.
