Minnesota Baseball: Big Ten Leader Following Sweep Of Northwestern

Related Topics: Baseball, Big Ten Conference

The 2015 Gopher baseball season was one to forget. The proud Gopher Baseball program, with 22 Big Ten titles and 9 tournament championships (tied for most) spent the vast majority of the season on the road and limped to a 21-30 finish. 9-15 in conference and a 9th place finish.

This year the expectations were low. When the preseason favorites were announce, the Gophers were nowhere near the announced top 6. The favorites?

  • Michigan
  • Maryland
  • Indiana
  • Iowa
  • Illinois
  • Michigan State
  • But the Gophers have come out of nowhere to be leading the Big Ten through the first half of the conference schedule.
