We’re continuing our college season preview series with NAIA Ball founder Robby Gutierrez, who has been shining a light on NAIA baseball for nearly a decade. Since launching NAIA Ball eight years ago and the NAIA Ball Podcast in 2018, Robby and his team have dedicated themselves to covering the NAIA landscape and growing the game at this level.

In this episode, Robby previews the 2025 NAIA baseball season, highlighting top teams, players to watch, and key storylines. He also reflects on the legacy of NAIA Ball co-founder Cody Butler, who passed away in 2022, and how the team continues to carry on his passion for the game. Tune in for an in-depth look at one of the most competitive levels of college baseball!
