History and Records

Westmont Baseball History

Westmont baseball was one of the first intercollegiate programs offered at Westmont College. The program has produced 10 NAIA All-Americans and numerous All-District and All-GSAC players. In addition, Westmont has had 25 players sign professional contracts, including two who have reached the major leagues.

The program has also developed several coaches. In fact, during the 2001 and 2002 seasons, three head coaches in the GSAC were former players at Westmont.

Playing at scenic Carr Field, the Warriors annually compete against the top small college competition in the western United States, and also play several games against major college competition.
