The 2025 Oregon State Beavers baseball team represents Oregon State University in the 2025 NCAA Division I baseball season. The Beavers play their home games at Goss Stadium at Coleman Field. The team is led by Pat Casey Head Baseball Coach Mitch Canham in his sixth season at Oregon State.[1]

The team is competing as an independent this season, as the university is one of only two remaining members of the Pac-12 Conference. Most of Oregon State’s non-football teams are competing as affiliate members of the West Coast Conference until the Pac-12 expands with new members in 2026.[2]

Preseason

[edit]

The Beavers were unanimously selected a preseason Top-10 team by all five major poll organizations (No. 7 by D1Baseball.com, NCBWA & USAToday Coaches Poll; No. 9 by Perfect Game; and No. 10 by Baseball America).[3]

Oregon State made a recruiting splash by signing Aiva Arquette, the All-Pac-12 infielder from Washington and top player in the transfer portal.[4] Perfect Game placed Arquette on their 2025 preseason All-America first team. He also received second-team preseason honors by Baseball America and NCBWA.[5]

Outfielder Trent Caraway joined Arquette as a preseason All-American, when Baseball America named him to the first team and Perfect Game placed him on their third team.[6]

Arquette and outfielder Gavin Turley landed on the Golden Spikes Award initial watch list.[7] Adley Rutschman won the award in 2019, while Cooper Hjerpe (2022) and Travis Bazzana (2024) were finalists.

Regular season

[edit]

The team set the school record for home runs in a game with eight in a 16–5 win over Nebraska on March 29. Six different players hit a home run, led by Gavin Turley with three. Turley finished the day 4-for-4 with three runs and six runs batted in, including a grand slam. Aiva Arquette, Jacob Krieg, Wilson Weber, Easton Talt, and AJ Singer also hit home runs in the game. Additionally, the Beavers hit for the rare home run cycle with a solo home run, a two-run home run, a three-run home run, and a grand slam. The team hit at least one home run in each of the seven innings before the 10-run rule brought the game to an early end.[8]

Gavin Turley took sole possession of the career home runs record when he hit the 46th of his Oregon State career in a win over CSUN on April 19. The previous record of 45 had been set last season by Travis Bazzana.[9]

Starting second baseman Jabin Trosky was sidelined indefinitely with an undisclosed injury prior to the series at Cal Poly. He had previously missed the 2023 season after undergoing right elbow surgery.[10]

Closing pitcher Matt Morrell was lost for the season after he underwent Tommy John surgery.[11] His final appearance was in relief on March 14 in a win over Grand Canyon, where he picked up the save. He was 1–0 with three saves during the 2025 campaign.

Accolades
Freshman Dax Whitney was selected as the National Pitcher of the Week by Perfect Game following a dominant performance against UNLV in his first college start. Whitney threw five innings, allowed no runs on four hits, and struck out eight batters on only 84 pitches.[12]

Aiva Arquette was named the Brooks Wallace Award Player of the Week by the College Baseball Foundation, given to the nation's most outstanding shortstop, following a dominant Week 2 performance. Arquette went 11 for 25 with three home runs, 10 runs batted in, six walks and eight runs scored.[13] Arquette further enhanced his resume by picking up the NCBWA Dick Howser Trophy National Player of the Week award for the period ending April 13. In the four games played he batted .500 (9 for 18), recorded seven runs, accounted for 11 runs batted in, had a 1.277 slugging percentage, and finished with two doubles, four home runs and four walks.[14]

Following a midweek win over No. 10 UCLA and three game sweep of CSUN, USA Baseball named Arquette their Golden Spikes Award Week 10 Player of the Week. In the four games played he went 11-for-17 from the plate (.647 batting average), scored 12 runs and tallied 11 runs batted in. In the April 19 finale against CSUN he tied an Oregon State record for most hits in a game, going a perfect 6-for-6.[15] He was also among the 45 players named to the Golden Spikes Award midseason watch list.[16]
