About the College Baseball Foundation and Hall of Fame

The College Baseball Foundation’s purpose as a 501(c)(3) non-profit is to preserve, elevate and advance the game; to inspire the next generation; to teach those who love college baseball about its rich history and traditions; to celebrate those who make college baseball special; and to honor those who have come before us, and built the foundation upon which college baseball thrives today.

The CBF has inducted 16 classes into the Hall of Fame representing 164 of the college game’s greatest players, coaches, umpires and contributors, and recognizes the following award winners on an annual basis: Brooks Wallace Award (Most Outstanding Shortstop), John Olerud Two-Way Player of the Year Award, Pitcher of the Year Award and the Skip Bertman Coach of the Year Award. Sixty recipients of these awards have been recognized over the past 21 years.
