Team Bio[edit]
The Martinsville Mustangs are a Summer Collegiate Baseball team playing in the Coastal Plain League. Founded in 2005, the Mustangs finished last in their division their inaugural year with a 22-34 record. The following year the Martinsville Mustangs went on to win their division with a 35-16 record, and earn a position in the Pettit Cup Championship Tournament.
The Martinsville Mustangs are like every other summer college baseball team, in that they are dedicated and designed to provide minor league-style competition for NCAA players that wish to continue on into professional baseball. The Mustangs operate in the model of an Independent Minor League team: recruiting athletes, playing nightly before fans in stadiums which seat thousands, using wood bats and minor league specification equipment and experiencing road trips between games. Like all other summer collegiate players, Martinsville Mustangs athletes are unpaid in order to maintain their NCAA eligibility, and live with host families in the same manner as Single A and Independent League players.
