The Old North State League, established in 2018, is the largest Summer collegiate baseball league in North Carolina. The Hendersonville Honeycrisps’ roster is comprised of many former local high school baseball players.
The League will eventually stretch to every corner of the state. This will give the players and the fans the chance to see some of the most beautiful scenery in the South. Whether that is the Mountains of the western part of the state, the Pine Trees of central North Carolina or the beaches along the Outer Banks, players will experience it all. Currently the league has 13 teams including Hendersonville – the Hendersonville Honeycrisps.
Baseball is at the very heart of the state. Over the years, baseball has evolved throughout North Carolina. In the early 1900s every rural town in the state had a “Town” team made up of mill workers. Now North Carolina is known for having some of the best College baseball teams in the country.
