Garden City, N.Y. - As it prepares to defend another regular-season banner in 2022, the Adelphi University baseball team has unveiled its 48-game schedule for the upcoming year.

In his 22 games as interim skipper last year, Bill Ianniciello led a masterful turnaround that resulted in the Panthers advancing to their first NE10 Tournament final since 2014.

As Ianniciello steps into his first full season as the program's head coach, Adelphi looks to pick up from where it left off in 2021.

Leading into the 2021 NE10 Tournament, Ianniciello's squad won 10 of its last 12 regular-season games, including a four-game sweep of Pace in the season's final weekend that propelled the Panthers to a second-straight NE10 Southwest Division regular-season championship.

Although Adelphi will not make its annual trip to Florida, the schedule is littered with non-conference home games across the better part of March.

A four-game set with Saint Anselm from Feb. 26-27 at William J. Bonomo Memorial Field will shed the curtain on the 2022 campaign.

Twelve of the team's first 15 non-conference games are set to be played at home. That stretch is highlighted by a three-game home-and-home series with regional finalist Molloy College (Mar. 4-6) and a re-match of the NE10 Championship across three games with SNHU (Mar. 19-20).

The SNHU series will give way to the start of conference play, which will again be aligned by division. No crossover play will count toward a team's conference record.

Both of Adelphi's Southwest Division postseason opponents from 2021 will make the trip to Long Island. A four-game weekend series with AIC starts off conference play from Mar. 26-27, while the Panthers welcome in Le Moyne for their Southwest Division final re-match from Apr. 30 to May 1.

The regular season will conclude in Albany, as Adelphi squares off with The College of Saint Rose leading into Mother's Day (May 6-7).

The 2021 NE10 Championship is set to commence May 10, with first-round action at home sites. A double-elimination tournament from May 12-14 at the Northeast Division's highest remaining seed will then crown a champion.
