In support of a sister institution with the UNC System, UNC Greensboro will temporarily host student-athletes from UNC Asheville baseball team while their university repairs the extensive damage left by Hurricane Helene in September.

These students, with their coaches and additional training staff, began to arrive at UNCG on October 14 and are expected to stay until the end of the month. The UNCA baseball team will be utilizing both UNCG facilities and our First National Bank Field to practice during this time.

In addition to this support, the Grasshoppers are offering a special Western NC Relief Package of four ticket vouchers to any 2025 Hoppers regular season games with a portion of the proceeds going to benefit the North Carolina Community Foundation’s Disaster Relief Fund.

The 2025 season schedule can be found here.
