IOWA CITY, Iowa – The University of Iowa baseball team will host three games and play the Black & Gold World Series at Duane Banks Field during the fall season, head coach Rick Heller announced on Wednesday.

The Hawkeyes will host their annual Scout Day on Sept. 15 before opening fall competition against Mississauga on Sept. 21. Iowa hosts Madison College on Sept. 29 and welcomes Indian Hills CC on Oct. 6.

Iowa’s fall slate will conclude with the Black & Gold World Series from Oct. 17-19. Game three is an if-necessary contest.

The Hawkeyes return five starters, two pitchers from the starting rotation and a total of 18 letterwinners from last year’s team that finished 44-16 and reached an NCAA Regional for the first time since 2017. Iowa welcomes 21 newcomers, including nine transfers, to this year’s team.

All fall ball games are open to the public with free admission.
