Team History[edit]

Formed in 2004 as founding members of the Florida Collegiate Summer League, the Winter Pines Warthogs were forced to pull up roots due to lack of local financing following the 2006 season.

The Warthogs operated in the model of a typical Summer Collegiate Baseball team: recruiting players, playing nightly before fans in stadiums, using wood bats and minor league specification equipment and experiencing road trips between games. Like all other summer collegiate players, the Winter Pines Warthogs were unpaid in order to maintain their NCAA eligibility, and lived with host families in the same manner as Single A and Independent League players.

The Warthogs relocated to Winter Springs, FL following the 2006 season and became the Winter Springs Barracudas for 2007.
