# 2020 UT Arlington Mavericks baseball team

The 2020 UT Arlington Mavericks baseball team represented the University of Texas at Arlington in the 2020 NCAA Division I baseball season. The Mavericks played their home games at Clay Gould Ballpark and were led by thirteenth year head coach Darin Thomas.
On March 12, the Sun Belt Conference announced the indefinite suspension of all spring athletics, including baseball, due to the increasing risk of the COVID-19 pandemic. Soon after, the Sun Belt cancelled all season and postseason play.
