The 2012 Baseball Team becomes the first team in Stony Brook history to be inducted into the Stony Brook Athletics Hall of Fame. The Seawolves shocked the world in 2012 as they won a program-record and NCAA-best 52 games en route to their first-ever appearance in the College World Series. Stony Brook became the first and only team from the Northeast Region to advance to the CWS since the NCAA went away from geographic regionals in 1987 after it defeated LSU in the Super Regionals. That season, the Seawolves had a conference-best 12 student-athletes earn All-Conference honors and seven student-athletes were selected in the 2012 MLB Draft, with five being picked in the first 12 rounds. Travis Jankowski was named the ABCA National Co-Player of the Year and America East Player of the Year, Tyler Johnson was tabbed the America East Pitcher of the Year and was an Academic All-American, Cole Peragine claimed the America East Rookie of the Year honor, and coach Matt Senk earned the NCBWA National Coach of the Year and America East Coach of the Year. Stony Brook finished the year ranked in the top 10 in four major polls including No. 7 in Baseball America.
