SAN DIEGO – San Diego State earned the No. 5 seed in the 2025 Credit Union 1 Mountain West Baseball Championship, set for May 21-24 in Mesa, Arizona. The announcement was made by the league office in Colorado Springs, Colorado.

The Aztecs (19-37, 14-16 MW) completed a sweep of Washington State at home this weekend to finish fifth in the Mountain West regular-season standings.

SDSU will open the MW Championship against No. 4 seed UNLV (31-22, 16-14 MW) on Wednesday, May 21, starting at 6:05 p.m. MST/PDT at Sloan Park, the spring training home of the Chicago Cubs.

The Aztecs and Rebels split their season series at three games apiece, with each side posting a sweep on their respective home diamonds.

The SDSU-UNLV clash will be preceded by the other first-round matchup pitting No. 3 seed New Mexico (30-22, 17-13 MW) and sixth-seeded San José State (26-28, 13-17 MW) at 1:05 pm.

If the Aztecs defeat the Rebels, they will face Nevada on Thursday, May 22, beginning at 1:05 p.m. The Wolf Pack (33-21, 19-11) received a first-round bye after claiming the regular-season title.

Meanwhile, second-seeded Fresno State (28-27, 18-12 MW) earned the other first-round bye and will await the winner of the Spartans-Lobos showdown on Thursday at 6:05 pm.

Following Wednesday’s first-round matchups, the 2025 Mountain West Championship enters into a double-elimination format for the remainder of the tournament.

The Aztecs have won the most Mountain West postseason championships, taking home six crowns since the league’s inception (2000, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2017, 2018). In all, San Diego State has posted a 50-34 record in 22 MW tournament appearances.

Additionally, the Aztecs have three Mountain West regular-season titles to their credit (2000, 2004, 2023).

The Mountain West Network will broadcast every game of the 2025 MW Baseball Championship.

Fans can watch the MW baseball championship for free on their smartphones or connected TVs via the Mountain West app through Apple TV, Android TV, Amazon Fire TV or Roku. Mobile applications are available through the iOS App Store and Google Play.

AIS launches new initiative to help athletes tackle life after sport

That’s why the Australian Institute of Sport (AIS) has launched a ‘Retired Athlete Peer Support Network’ to help former athletes navigate life after sport.

“Our athletes have so much to contribute beyond the podium and we are determined to see the sport sector and broader industries reap the benefits of their unique skill set,” Minister for Sport, The Hon Anika Wells MP said.

“The Retired Athlete Peer Support Network is another example of our commitment to a culture of challenge and care which allows athletes to perform at their best and grow beyond their identity as “sportspeople”.

“The Albanese Government backs our athletes from playground to podium to post-sporting life.”

Strengthening support systems for alumni athletes is long overdue- according to Australian Sports Commission Executive General Manager of AIS Performance, Matti Clements.

“As a sector we do a good job of supporting athletes while competing, now we are supporting them throughout all the stages of their career,” Clements said.

“For many athletes, transitioning out of sport can be distressing, especially when it’s unexpected and can lead to complex mental health issues or an identity crisis.

“We owe it to these individuals who have dedicated their lives to representing Australia on the world stage to make the transition out of the limelight easier for them. That’s part of the Win Well ethos- supporting athletes’ holistic development.”

The Retired Athlete Peer Support Network is underpinned by Australia’s High Performance Strategy: Win Well which has a strong focus on supporting the entire athlete lifecycle.

This new initiative is backed by academics and psychologists.

The next intake kicks off mid-July, with a handful of spots left for athletes to register.

Matildas great Elise Kellond-Knight, four-time Olympic Water Polo star Bronwen Knox and five-time national rowing champion Cameron Girdlestone took part in the pilot program. There was such high demand, it reached capacity within three weeks.

For Kellond-Knight, the timing was everything.

“I had just retired from professional football and felt like a huge part of my identify was gone. But being able to connect with other athletes was the most powerful thing for me,” Kellond-Knight shared.

“It helped me realise that life after sport can be just as fulfilling and confirmed that I’d made the right decision.”

The sessions are athlete-led, allowing the group to delve into topics that matter most to them and support one another.

Former Aussies Stinger Madeleine Steere joined the pilot program seeking career guidance.

“One of the biggest challenges I faced while retiring from sport was finding a new role that I was equally passionate about,” Steere said.

“This network provided me with emotional support, practical advice and professional networking opportunities that ultimately changed the course of my life,” Steere said, referencing how she found her new “dream job” with a global medical technology corporation.

“Transitioning out of elite sport brings many unique challenges that you can never be fully prepared for. This network ensures you’re not experiencing those challenges alone. No matter where you are in your transition, this network can help support you.”

The AIS is also hosting face-to-face alumni networking events in every capital city from July onwards. All retired athletes are invited to attend- regardless of whether they are part of the Peer Support Network.

“It was a fantastic opportunity for me to practise refereeing beach volleyball, ahead of NEVZA Beach in Bridlington at the end of June. 

“It was really nice to referee in France again, and to see my old coach, Thierry Placette, as well as make new referee aquaintences.

Thursday’s performance was a 10-second PR for Smith, who also climbed up to eighth in program history in the event, finishing the season as one of five Sycamores with an indoor or outdoor 5000m time under 17 minutes during the 2024-25 campaign.

Thursday’s performance was Grant’s fifth steeplechase under 11:25 this season, and also gave the Sycamores a top-10 finish in the event at the USATF U20 Championships for the second straight year after Ryan York finished ninth on the men’s side last season.
