Gauchos take new-look to diamond Tuesday

With a deep team that boasts two All-American pitchers, the UCSB baseball team will have more than their stellar product on the field to excite fans this season. UCSB will be sporting new logos on both its hats and uniforms this upcoming season.

The Gauchos will change logos on the hat to an inter-locking S and B in gold on a blue hat. These hats, the same that the team will wear on the field, will be available for fans to purchase all season long at home games. The Gauchos open their season on Tuesday, Feb. 23 vs. Westmont at 2 p.m. All UCSB home games are played at the picturesque Caesar Uyesaka Stadium on campus.

In addition to the new hats the team will be sporting, the Gauchos will also have a new look throughout their uniform. A bold “UCSB” will adorn the front of one set of jerseys while an alternate blue jersey will have “Gauchos” splashed across the chest.

The hats will only be available for purchase at The Gaucho Shop during home games, so be sure to catch the Gauchos in action this season and sport the new look! Season tickets are available, beginning at just $50 for the entire season! Click here for more information or to purchase season seats.
