Staten Island, NY - Head coach Craig Noto of the Wagner baseball team has announced the team's additions from the class of 2028. Eleven players will be joining the Seahawks ahead of the 2025 season.

"Recruiting classes are the bloodline of your program and I feel that our assistant coaches have done an incredible job of identifying great student-athletes that embody what being a Seahawk is about," Noto said. "This class has a wealth of depth on both the position player and pitching sides of the ball. We have been able to dip into a more national pool of talent and assemble a roster that we feel very confident in heading into the new year. These young men have really separated themselves and I'm excited to see what they do between the lines."
