Iowa Baseball had a tough stretch of games to end the 2025 season. The Hawkeyes were on top of the standings for most of the season, but went 2-10-1 down the final stretch to end the regular season in third place.
Iowa dropped two of three to Oregon State, including a tie, and lost the final three games of the regular season to Oregon.
The Hawkeyes entered the Big Ten Tournament as a No. 3 seed and won their first game 4-3 against Rutgers. Iowa then lost a meaningless game to Indiana before bowing out of the tournament following a 9-3 loss to UCLA in the semifinals.
After losing to UCLA, the Hawkeyes were not invited to the NCAA Tournament, ending their season.
Iowa finished the season with a 33-22-1 (21-9 Big Ten) record and had eight players earn All-Big Ten honors.
This week, the Big Ten is getting a jump on next season by releasing the 2026 conference schedule.
