BOWLING GREEN — On May 15, Bowling Green State University announced it will discontinue baseball, leaving its 34 players without a place to play.

The school will honor scholarships for the remainder of their academic careers, but many players have opted to enter the transfer portal to make contact with other programs. 

This page will be updated as players leave the transfer portal and/or commit elsewhere.
