WVU Baseball Gains Commitment from Breakout DII Star OF

The WVU baseball program is collecting wins for the future as well as the present this week. Even while focused on their NCAA Super Regional matchup with LSU, West Virginia has gained a transfer commit for next season.

Colorado Mesa outfielder Paul Schoenfeld will now take his talents to WVU, according to multiple reports.

The Wichita, Kan. native will elevate his game after being one of the most productive players in NCAA Division II during the 2025 season. He earned First Team All-Region and Second Team All-American honors from the ABCA.

Schoenfeld claimed the honor of consensus All-American thanks to receiving the recognition from D2CCA, NCBWA and ABCA.

Schoenfeld’s season was highlighted by a 28-game hit streak and a 35-game reached base streak, which led to finishing the year with a .425 batting average. He ranked second in Division II with 89 and runs scored per game and fifth in hits with 94.
