The future looks bright for Carleton's Baseball program. With a string of strong seasons behind them, including the second-highest win total in school history and the program's first-ever trip to the MIAC Playoffs during the 2009 season, the Knights are ready to continue achieving excellence on the baseball field. Head Coach Aaron Rushing took over the program during the summer of 2005 and brings experience dealing with professional level players. He looks forward to imparting his wisdom to a young crop of players.
