My RHP is at a D3.  He started school at the end of August and they gave the first year guys the first week to get settled into school.  Then after Labor Day, they had captain's practices a couple of times a week, plus workouts.  The coaches were able to work with the team in October so they had afternoon practices with the coaching staff.  Every weekend in Oct was two full days of scrimmages - they divided the team into four teams and each team scrimmaged each other.  The pitchers were given three innings.  The scrimmages were LONG - lots of instruction going on.  Lots of banter in the dug out.  Parents were invited to attend so we went when son told us he was scheduled to pitch.  The last weekend, they traveled for the day to a semi-local D1 (about 90 minutes away) for a scrimmage.

Outside of the practices, they did several team bonding events.  The entire team went to a Nationals baseball game.  They did a service project.  The guys (no coaches) played paint ball.

this is pretty much spot on to our experiences.
