The purpose of this study was to examine the dietary intake and recovery status of Division III baseball players during the fall collegiate baseball season. Dietary intake was evaluated using three 24-hour dietary records, while recovery status was evaluated using three Total Quality Recovery (TQR) logs on home, away and non-competition days. The participants in this study were 23 male (mean ± SD: age = 18.6 ± 0.9 years) NCAA Division III baseball student-athletes from a northeast Ohio university. Participants completed the 24-hour dietary records and TQR logs. Dietary intake was analyzed using ESHA food processor software (Elizabeth Stewart Hands and Associates, Salem, OR). The findings of this study were assessed by a One-way repeated measures Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and Bonferroni post hoc (SPSS, version 12). Statistical analysis revealed significant differences between home (2,514 ± 159.56 kcals) and non- competition energy intake (2,104.96 ± 114.99 kcals) (P = 0.004) and home (258.76 ± 118.22 g) and non-competition carbohydrate intake (201.33 ± 71.49 g) (P = 0.015). Recovery status was classified as poor (#14 points) during home (13.69 ± 3.00), away (13.96 ± 2.76) and non-competition (14.04 ± 3.22) days. Division III baseball players did not achieve sport-specific, bodyweight-dependent nutrition recommendations for energy, carbohydrate, fat or fluids. These data suggest Division III baseball players consume suboptimal dietary intakes and experience poor recovery during the fall collegiate baseball season.
