CHARLESTON, S.C. --- The College of Charleston baseball team will return to a full 56-game schedule in 2022 that includes 33 contests at Patriots Point and matchups with five programs that advanced to the NCAA postseason last spring, announced head coach
Chad Holbrook on Wednesday.
Charleston's 2022 slate features renewed rivalries with nearly a dozen familiar foes in non-conference play in addition to first-time meetings with several programs, including a marquee midweek matchup with national semifinalist Texas on Tuesday, March 15 at Patriots Point.

"We are thrilled about the upcoming schedule," Holbrook said. "It certainly has a national flair to it with a home series against a Super Regional participant in ECU and a visit from perennial national power Texas. It also includes always competitive regional matchups with Coastal Carolina and Clemson. When you combine some of our favorite regional rivalries with matchups against some of the powerhouses of college baseball, it certainly will make for an exciting spring at Patriots Point. Our players are fired up about the challenges ahead."
