Track and field had 23 student-athletes on the graduation list, followed by lacrosse with 12 and baseball and football with 10.

🔼 Nation Known. The National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association named right-handed pitcher Trey Yesavage the Dick Howser Trophy National Pitcher of the Month for April. He is the first Pirate to earn the award since Carson Whisenhunt in 2021. Yesavage had four starts in April, went 4-0 and recorded a 1.03 ERA. He limited his opponents to a .105 batting average while surrendering just three runs and nine hits.
