Joanna Hornets
Collegiate Summer Baseball
Welcome to the Joanna Hornets! With a proud history of textile mill baseball dating back to 1915, we have long represented the Joanna community and surrounding counties until the 1960s.
This summer, we are excited to return to the field as a collegiate summer league team in the Southern Shores Baseball League (Formerly SEBL), offering affordable baseball opportunities for local and regional players competing at the collegiate level.
Our iconic Joanna Stadium, built in the 1920s, is currently undergoing renovations and is set to become our home field once again in 2026. We are exploring the possibility of playing in 2025 with enough player interest, due to field availability games would be played at nearby Newberry High School.

The Joanna Hornets are an independent collegiate summer baseball program focused on players from our surrounding communities who appear on a NCAA D1, D2, D3, NAIA, and NJCAA rosters.
