May 13, 2023-Emporia State University Director of Athletics David Spafford announced Friday that
Seth Wheeler will not return as the Hornets baseball coach. A national search will begin immediately to find the next head coach.
"Emporia State Baseball has a rich tradition including the 1978 national championship and the 2009 national runner-up. Knowing our foundation while evaluating our program today, making a change in leadership with our baseball program was not an easy decision," said Spafford. "I would like to thank Coach Wheeler for his service to Emporia State University and Hornet Athletics".
Wheeler was 97-116 in his five seasons as the head coach at Emporia State after three seasons as the pitching coach for the Hornets. Â
