Todd Interdonato, Wofford Terriers head coach, is in his 11th season as the leader of the Southern Conference member. He was named head coach of the Terriers on June 26, 2007 after previously serving for two seasons as an assistant coach at Wofford. With 251 career wins, he is first all-time among Wofford baseball coaches in that category.

Over the past four seasons, Interdonato has led the program to unprecedented success. In 2014, the overall record of 32-28 was the first winning record since 1992 and the first in the Division I era at Wofford. That was followed by a 39-22 record in 2015, the most wins in school history, and a 30-28 mark in 2016. It also marked the first back-to-back-to-back winning seasons in school history. The team posted a 13-10 mark in Southern Conference play in 2015 and a 13-11 mark in 2017, the first winning records ever in league play. In both 2014 and 2015, the Terriers reached the SoCon Tournament semifinals. Wofford led the nation in total stolen bases in both 2014 and 2015.

Last season the Terriers won 28 games, the seventh straight season with 20 or more wins. In the Southern Conference, the 13-11 mark was just the second winning season in league play. The team picked up series wins over Furman, UNCG, Samford, East Tennessee State, and The Citadel, while avoiding being swept in a league series. Six players earned All-Southern Conference recognition following the season, with first baseman Brett Hash on the first team. Catcher Carson Waln, outfielder McClain Bradley, and designated hitter Cody Miller picked up second team honors, while Brett Rodriguez and Matt Ellmyer earned spots on the All-Freshman Team. The team finished in the top five in eleven categories in the Wofford single season records, including strikeouts per nine innings (first) and RBIs (second). Pitcher Spencer Kulman signed a free agent contract with the San Diego Padres following the season. Twenty players were named to the Southern Conference Academic Honor Roll and McClain Bradley was named to the CoSIDA Academic All-District Team.

During the 2016 season, Wofford won 30 games, marking the third straight year with 30 or more wins. The team was 12-12 in the Southern Conference, just the second .500 or better mark in league play for the Terriers. The Terriers had series wins over The Citadel, VMI and ETSU. Pitchers Matthew Milburn and Will Stillman, along with shortstop Derek Hirsch, earned second team All-Southern Conference honors.
