You're invited to join us as we celebrate the start of the 2026 LSU Baseball season with the annual First Pitch Banquet on Thursday, January 15, 2026, at The Crowne Plaza in Baton Rouge!

Meet Head Coach Jay Johnson, the LSU Baseball coaching staff, student-athletes, alumni and friends of the program to kick off another exciting year of LSU Baseball.

As in previous years, the Tiger Athletic Foundation will coordinate the First Pitch Banquet. Proceeds from sponsorship, table and tickets sales will directly support LSU Baseball NIL Opportunities through NILSU MAX, the entity dedicated to identifying and securing NIL deals for LSU student-athletes.

The evening will be highlighted by a cocktail reception, dinner, a silent auction, a live auction and a program you will not want to miss. Last year's First Pitch Banquet sold out in just a few weeks. Please secure your table below. For a breakdown of available opportunities, please see below:
