A Historic Season for the Presidents
Washington & Jefferson College’s baseball squad captured the 2026 Presidents’ Athletic Conference championship on May 15, avenging a 2025 defeat to Grove City and securing a berth in the NCAA Division III Regionals.
The championship game featured a dramatic third‑inning rally by Grove City that loaded the bases, but Dojonovic steadied the Presidents, limiting further damage before the team pulled away with a nine‑run burst in the fifth through seventh innings, culminating in an 11‑2 victory.
The Presidents finished the regular season with a 32‑win tally, tying for the 10th most wins in program history, and entered the PAC Tournament as the No. 2 seed, dispatching three opponents by a combined 22‑6 margin before the title game.
Anderson’s solo homer in the seventh gave W&J a 9‑1 lead, and both he and Dojonovic voiced confidence that the team can compete nationally, setting the stage for a Friday matchup against the University of Chicago.
