Teel played as a designated hitter (19 games), right fielder (19 games), and catcher (15 games) as a freshman at the University of Virginia, and was named third-team All-Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) at designated hitter after slashing .335/.416/.526 with 70 hits, nine home runs, and 41 RBIs in 209 at bats.[3][8] He slashed .276/.402/.439 with 12 doubles, six home runs, and 45 RBIs in 221 at bats during his sophomore season, playing primarily catcher.[9] After the season, Teel played collegiate summer baseball with the Harwich Mariners of the Cape Cod Baseball League,[10] and was selected to play for the United States collegiate national team.[11]

Teel entered his junior season as a projected first round pick in the 2023 MLB draft.[12] On May 22, 2023, Teel was named ACC Player of the Year in baseball.[13] In late June, he was named the 2023 recipient of the Buster Posey Award, a national catcher of the year award.[14] He was also a consensus selection to the 2023 College Baseball All-America Team.[15]
