Fort Hays State University supports 16 athletic programs, including Baseball. Out of the nearly 5,000 on-campus students at FHSU, around 400 are student-athletes.

Doing everything it can to put successful teams on the playing field, Fort Hays State takes its athletic programs very seriously. The athletic department strives to provide high-level competition within one of the nation’s most elite Division II conferences, the MIAA.

The athletically-committed universities of the MIAA have produced 16 national team championships and over 150 individual national champions at the NCAA Division II level. This commitment only drives members of the conference to compete at a higher level.

FHSU athletes are also great learners. Close to 60% of student-athletes maintain a grade point average of 3.0 or higher, and more than 140 athletes have a GPA of 3.5 or higher.

FHSU Baseball Funding Needs

General Athletic ScholarshipsStudent-athletes at Fort Hays State need scholarships as much as other students. Balancing practice, classes, school work, and games can prove to be challenging; add a job to the equation and the result can be overwhelming. Athletic scholarships not only allow student-athletes to focus on performing at their highest level, both academically and athletically, but also attract talented players who in turn only make the FHSU Tigers better. With over a dozen programs to support, help from alumni and friends is paramount to the success of FHSU Athletics.
