Alabama baseball opens the 2024 season this weekend with a series against Manhattan College.
The series will mark the first all-time meeting between the No. 17 Crimson Tide and the Jaspers. It will also mark the beginning of a new era for Alabama, as coach Rob Vaughn will make his Crimson Tide debut. The former Maryland head coach was tabbed as the replacement for Brad Bohannon, who was fired last season amid a gambling scandal.
