La Salle Explorers baseball
The La Salle Explorers baseball team is a currently dormant varsity intercollegiate athletic team of La Salle University in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States.[2] The team was a member of the Atlantic 10 Conference, which is part of the National Collegiate Athletic Association's Division I.

La Salle announced in September 2020 that baseball would be one of the seven sports to be dropped at the end of the 2020–21 academic year for sustainability reasons.[3] However, in April 2024, La Salle announced that baseball would be reinstated as a sponsored sport beginning in the 2025–26 academic year (2026 season), along with starting new programs for women's rugby, women's acrobatics and tumbling, and women's triathlon.[4] On June 3rd 2024, La Salle announced the hiring of Head Coach David Miller. Miller will begin his tenure in June 2024 to prepare for the return of the baseball program to competition in 2025-26.[5]
