Head coach Shorty Stoner's baseball team earned the NAIA District 18 Championship and first twenty-win baseball season (20-11) in College history.  The team advanced to the Area 6 championship, but lost to Liberty Baptist and future major leaguer Sid Bream. 

This baseball team is the most prolific power hitting team in College history.  The offense crushed 16 home runs and drew the most walks in a season with 149.  The combination of power hitting, solid pitching and steady defense helped the squad set numerous records.  Four members of the team and coach Stoner have been inducted into the Penn State Behrend Hall of Fame. 

Members of the 1981 District 18 Championship team included Thomas Allebrand, Timothy Archer, Greg Breski, Vince Brush, Clifford Caldwell, Shawn Callaghan, Sam Cianflocco, manager Dave Cochran, Richard Crist, John Deigan, Doug Fasick, assistant coach Mike Folga, Joseph Fornear, Sean Gill, Dave Hall, Robert Hurrell, James Kaczorowski, Thomas Knight, Andrew Lyons, Timothy McQueeny, Michael Mixon, Brent Pomycala, Dan Rhollans, Robert Roach, Rick Ryver, Gerry Simon and David Weakland.
