NCAA DII Baseball Program

University of Minnesota-Duluth Baseball - MN

University of Minnesota-Duluth baseball competes at the NCAA DII level in Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference and is based in Duluth, MN. Campus enrollment is about 7,336 students. The published acceptance rate is 89%. Recent baseball results include 2026: 19-31. Listed coaches include Bob Rients, Tyler Erickson, and Gabe Duncan.

A difficult Northern Sun spring left Minnesota Duluth 19–31 overall and 18–20 in conference play, down from 26–27 the prior year. Bob Rients, head coach since 2005, continues to lead the Duluth, Minnesota, NCAA Division II Bulldogs through another rebuilding stretch. Some public databases list mismatched win totals; Baseball Forward prefers the 19–31 ledger that matches the NSIC schedule. Families weighing a compact 22-player 2027 roster should project patience before expecting a return to .500 NSIC baseball.
