After claiming its first regular-season Missouri Valley Conference championship and its first Missouri Valley Conference tournament title since 1994, head coach Mark Kingston presented the Illinois State baseball team and support staff with championship rings to remember the historic run.
The Redbirds earned the automatic bid to the 2010 NCAA Tournament and were selected as the No. 3 seed at the Louisville Regional. With ISU’s 8-3 win over Saint Louis on day two of the regional, the Redbirds earned their first NCAA Tournament victory since 1976.
The rings were designed and produced by Josten’s.
