SPARTANBURG, S.C. – The second weekend of next year's baseball season will take head coach Jeff Mercer and Indiana down south for a four-team, three-game round-robin weekend in South Carolina. The Hoosiers will play a trio of contests in Spartanburg at the home of the Hub City Spartanburgers, the High-A affiliate of the Texas Rangers.
IU has grown accustomed to playing a round-robin tournament early in the non-conference portion of the schedule. This is the sixth-straight season that the Hoosiers will play a postseason style tournament at the beginning of the year. Last year, IU went down to Jacksonville and played LSU, UCF and Notre Dame at the home of the Marlins' Triple-A affiliate.
The Hoosiers will be joined by Austin Peay, UNCW and Wofford during the weekend in South Carolina. UNCW and Wofford each won 30-or-more games a season ago and finished in the top 125 of the final RPI. Austin Peay is just a year removed from winning 45 games in 2025.
Full matchups, dates and times will be set for the Spartanburg College Baseball Series at a later date. IU's full 2027 schedule will be released in the fall.
