Rankings from Collegiate Baseball

The 2015 VMI Keydets baseball team represented the Virginia Military Institute during the 2015 NCAA Division I baseball season. The Keydets returned to the Southern Conference after an eleven-year hiatus in the Big South from 2003 to 2014. VMI was led by first-year head coach Jonathan Hadra, who replaced longtime Keydet skipper Marlin Ikenberry. Ikenberry resigned following the 2014 season for a career in private business, and was the Keydets' all-time winningest baseball coach.[2]

Personnel

VMI lost two of its starting pitchers following the 2014 season. Senior left-hander Connor Bach graduated, and was drafted by the Washington Nationals in the 21st round of the 2014 MLB Draft.[3] Additionally, junior pitcher Reed Garrett was drafted by the Texas Rangers in the 16th round, and chose to leave school early to pursue a career in baseball. Garrett played with the Spokane Indians, the Class A-Short season affiliate of the Rangers.[4] The Keydets also graduated left fielder and backup catcher Eric Mayers, as well as relievers Berkley Hawkins, Campbell Henkel, and Travis Thomas.
