The Terre Haute REX[4] are a collegiate summer baseball team based in Terre Haute, Indiana. They are a member of the summer collegiate Prospect League.[1]

They are managed by Tony Rosselli.

The Rex play home games at Bob Warn Field at Sycamore Stadium, also the home of Indiana State University's baseball team.[5]

The Terre Haute Rex are named after a prominent product with a historic connection to the community. Rex Coffee, produced by Clabber Girl, the “Imperial blend, fit for a Monarch” was roasted and packed in downtown Terre Haute, with a history dating back over a century. Patented in 1905, Rex Coffee was a household name from Chicago to Louisville; and from Cincinnati to St. Louis. The selection of the 'Rex' name continues a Terre Haute tradition of unique baseball team names that includes the Huts, Tots, Stags, Terre-iers and Highlanders.[6][7][8]

The Rex play in the Prospect League's Eastern Conference – Central Division along with the Danville Dans, Dubois County Bombers, Full Count Rhythm, and Normal CornBelters.[9]
