The 2009 Monarchs compiled a losing record for the second year in a row but were still able to earn a berth to the CAA tournament with a 13–11 conference mark. The team played against three ranked teams during the season; #17 South Carolina, #20 ECU, and #29 George Mason losing each time.[2]
The season started at the Wake Forest tournament where they went 2–2 with wins against Marshall and Akron. In conference play ODU won their series against James Madison, Hofstra, William & Mary, and sweeping rival VCU.
Third baseman Jake McAloose led the team in batting average hitting .413 which is the 9th highest single-season batting average in ODU history. His remarkable offensive season and fielding .965 earned him 1st team All-CAA and 2nd team ABCA All-Region. Freshman OF/RHP Brett Harris earned Freshman All-American honors as well.
