"We are beyond excited and relieved to bring back multiple College Classics to Historic Fleming Stadium after a COVID riddled 2020 and 2021. The schools attending could not be more ready to make the trip back down south to our facility. By continuing to bring baseball to the Wilson area year-round, we are providing everyone with consistent entertainment throughout the year, steady business to the local Wilson community, and a warmer destination for these northern college programs," said Tobs General Manager Mike Bell.

The Classics will feature (10) Division II schools. Eight schools are making the trip back to Wilson from years past: Barton College, Chowan University, Mid-Atlantic Christian University, Bloomsburg University, Fairmont State University, California University of PA, Alderson Broaddus University, and College of Saint Rose.
