“We are proud of all these athletes as they have put in the work needed to be named to this team,” said 2022 MNT Head Coach, Ron Hackett. “They’re a great group of young men and will represent USA Softball well as we strive for a gold medal."
Representing the Red, White and Blue will be a roster that includes seven veteran members from the 2019 WBSC Men’s World Championship and Pan American Games rosters that earned the program’s first Pan American Games silver medal since 2003.
The USA Softball Men’s National Team has won nine WBSC Men's Softball World Championship medals, including five gold medals (1966, 1968, 1976, 1980 and 1988), one silver medal (1972) and three bronze medals (1984, 1992 and 2000). In Pan American Games competition, Team USA has advanced to eight gold medal games while claiming the silver medal each time.
