Now in his seventh season at Akron, Head Coach David Trainor has led the Zips to three NCAA Regional Tournament appearances.

The team of one senior, three juniors, two sophomores and one freshman, is made of players from around the world. Sweden, Scotland and England are represented, as well as, Ohio and Alabama.

They had top-10 finishes last fall at the Bearcat Invitational, Firestone Invitational, Mountaineer Intercollegiate and ODU/OBX Intercollegiate.

The spring season will see Akron in the Wexford Intercollegiate, Palmetto Intercollegiate, Linger Longer, plus the Furman and Irish Creek Intercollegiates, before competing in the MAC Championship.
