NCAA Div. II Season Preview
Thu Feb 05 2026
Next up on the ABCA Podcast, we continue our college previews with a full look at NCAA Division II baseball, joined by two of the most respected voices at the level: Chris Hanks, head coach at Colorado Mesa University and ABCA Division II Committee Chair and Wayne Cavadi, the longtime “Dean of DII."
Cavadi has been covering Division II athletics for more than a decade, providing unmatched insight into the national landscape, while Hanks has led the Mavericks since 1999, building one of the most consistent and successful programs in the country.
Together, they break down preseason storylines, teams to watch, conference depth, and what makes DII baseball such a competitive and unique level.
