Kyle Sprague joined the University of Cincinnati baseball staff in the summer of 2017.
His work on offense came through the loudest during the team's historic 2019 season when the Bearcats' bats went on a torrential pace during the postseason. During the 4-0 AAC Tournament run, UC broke the tournament records for runs (51), RBI (47) and hits (60). Seven homeruns and four in the championship game were also AAC Tournament records. The 22-5 title win over UConn was the largest margin of victory ever in the tournament while they tied for the most number of hits in a game. Eleven different players got a hit during the 4-0 tournament week. All six all-tournament honorees were offensive players with slugger AJ Bumpass named tournament MVP.
During the pandemic-shortened 2020 season, UC ranked 12th in the nation in triples per game, 14th in doubles per game, 21st in on-base percentage, 30th in scoring and 31st in slugging percentage.
Sprague came to UC after two seasons on Head Coach Scott Googins staff at Xavier University as the volunteer assistant coach. Sprague directed XUs camps, assisted in all facets of the program and coached first base during games.
Kyle has been with me the past two years and is a great addition to our staff here at UC, Googins said. He brings a lot to the table - he does an unbelievable job with developing infielders and is on the cutting edge with hitters. He's a young up-and-coming coach who's very energetic and passionate about what he does.
During his two seasons at Xavier, the Musketeers won a BIG EAST Conference regular season championship (2016), two-straight league tournament championships (2016 & 17) and played in consecutive regional finals in the NCAA Championship (2016 & 17).
Sprague worked with hitters and infielders and assisted with outfielders at Xavier. The Musketeers set a school record with a .977 fielding percentage in 2017 after tying the previous record with a .974 mark in 2016.
He mentored six Xavier players who went on to play professionally, including:
2017 second-round selection Zac Lowther, eighth-rounder Rylan Bannon, 18th-round pick Garrett Schilling and 22nd-round choice Greg Jacknewitz. Dan Rizzie and Andre Jernigan were 13th and 14th-round picks in 2016.
Sprague has previous experience in the American Athletic Conference having served as a volunteer assistant coach at UCF in 2015.
At UCF, Sprague was in charge of the Knights' outfielders and coached first base during games, while aiding the development of the team's infielders and catchers along with hitting responsibilities. The Knights achieved a program-best No. 6 ranking during the 2015 campaign.
Sprague guided seniors JoMarcos Woods and Erik Barber in 2015 to career bests in the outfield and at the plate, garnering recognition on The American All-Conference team. Woods posted a .323 avg. with five homers and 32 RBI, while Barber compiled a .313 avg. and a team-high 11 homers.
Under Sprague in 2014, all three of the Knights outfielders - Erik Barber, Sam Tolleson and Derrick Salberg - were honored to one of The American's three all-conference teams. Salberg tallied a .992 fielding pct., while junior JoMarcos Woods led all position players with a .994 pct.
While at UCF, Sprague aided the development of four players - Eric Skoglund (3rd), Dylan Moore (7th), James Vasquez (25th) and Mitchell Tripp (36th) - who were all selected in the MLB Draft.
Before coming to Orlando, Sprague held the volunteer assistant position during the 2012-13 season at Gardner-Webb. While with the Runnin' Bulldogs, catcher John Harris was a Johnny Bench Award nominee and the team set a program best in fielding pct. at .969.
Sprague has extensive experience as a camp instructor, working at the Marc Wilkins Baseball Academy from 2007-12 and for Cal Ripken Baseball in 2009. He also has served as a camp instructor at Clemson, Vanderbilt, Tennessee, LSU and Mississippi State, among others.
The Mansfield, Ohio, native graduated from Malone (Ohio) University with degrees in business administration and sports management. He played collegiately at Malone and Tiffin University.
Sprague and his wife Erin live in Cincinnati.

Right-hander pitcher Danny Serreino, the regions ABCA Pitcher of the Year, was tabbed an All-American, with second-team honors by D3baseball.com and third-team status by the ABCA.

Division 3
Vodenlich enters his 14th season at the helm of the UW-Whitewater baseball program in 2016-17. He has taken the Warhawks to heights unreached prior to his arrival on campus. While the Whitewater program has had longstanding success, Vodenlich has set a new standard, turning the Warhawks into a NCAA Division III college baseball power. During Vodenlichs 13 seasons as head coach, the Warhawks have won nine WIAC championships, qualified for the NCAA Championships 11 times and appeared in the NCAA Division III College World Series six times, including winning the 2014 and 2005 NCAA Division III National Championships. In 2016, Vodenlich became the 43rd active Division III coach to reach 500 career wins in the Warhawks' NCAA regional-clinching 11-0 victory over Rose-Hulman (Ind.). UW-Whitewater reached the NCAA Championship round for the fourth time since 2008 and the sixth time under Vodenlich. In 2015, Vodenlich passed his former head coach and current mentor Jim Miller for the most coaching wins in program history, picking up career victory No. 417 at UW-Whitewater in the team's first game at UW-Oshkosh on April 7. In that same year, he became the youngest inductee into the Wisconsin Baseball Coaches Association Hall of Fame. Vodenlich earned his 400th career victory during the team's 2014 World Series apperance. The Warhawks knocked off SUNY Cortland (N.Y.) 9-6 to make Vodenlich the second coach in program history to reach the milestone. Vodenlich has been on the coaching staff for all 11 of UW-Whitewaters winningest seasons, with nine of the 11 coming during his time as head coach. During the 2000s, the Warhawks had the 11th most victories in NCAA Division III. Off the field, Vodenlich has been honored as the WIAC Coach of the Year seven times, was named the NCAA Division III National Coach of the Year by the American Baseball Coaches Association in 2005 and 2014, and was honored as the NCAA Regional Coach of the Year in 2004, 2005, 2008, 2010 and 2014. In 2007, Vodenlich was inducted into the UW-Whitewater Athletic Hall of Fame as a former student-athlete and was awarded with the WBCA College Coach of the Year in 2004, 2008 and 2010. He was tabbed the WBCAs Man of the Year in 2005. Players coming to play under Vodenlich can expect to grow thanks to his determined player development exertions. Twelve student-athletes have developed into All-Americans during Vodenlichs tenure. Since joining the UW-Whitewater program as a player in 1989 and the coaching staff in 1994, 28 former Warhawks have signed professional contracts, the first being former Major League closer Bob Wickman, who Vodenlich caught at UW-Whitewater. In addition to his great impact on the game in the United States, Vodenlich also is an internationally known clinician, conducting coaching clinics in Germany, England, Austria, Slovenia, Croatia and Hungary. Before joining the coaching ranks, Vodenlich was one of the best players to ever take the field for the Warhawks. Playing from 1989-1992, Vodenlich finished with a .397 career batting average, good for third all-time in school history. His .456 average in 1991 is the second best single season average in program history. Vodenlich was an ABCA All-American in 1991 and 1992, the first two-time All-American at UW-Whitewater. Following his collegiate career, Vodenlich went on to play professionally in Europe, winning the Slovenian National Championship in 1994. Vodenlich joined Jim Millers coaching staff as an assistant coach in 1994 and stayed on the staff until 1998, when he was named the head coach at Edgewood College. Prior to Vodenlichs tenure at Edgewood, the Eagles had an all-time record of 33-133 and never had seen a winning season. Vodenlich needed just two seasons to change that, setting a school record for wins in his first season before shattering it the following season, helping Edgewood to its first winning campaign in program history. Following the 1999 season, Vodenlich returned to UW-Whitewater and rejoined Millers staff as an assistant coach. With Millers retirement coming following the 2003 season, the Warhawks didnt have to look far to find their seventh head coach in school history. Its a hire the school certainly hasnt regretted. Naming Vodenlich head coach for the 2004 season immediately paid off for the university as the Warhawks set a new school record for wins and made just their second trip to the NCAA Division III College World Series. Under Vodenlichs guidance in 2005, UW-Whitewater set a new school record for wins with 45, fewest losses with 7 and made another trip to Appleton for the College World Series. This time around the Warhawks werent denied, claiming their first national championship. UW-Whitewater qualified for the College World Series in 2008 and again in 2011. The Warhawks returned to Appleton in 2014, winning the program's second-ever NCAA Division III championship to complete the institution's "trifecta" of national titles during the 2013-14 academic year. The Warhawks' football, men's basketball and baseball teams all won national championships to become the first school at any level of the NCAA to win those three titles in the same year. With a bachelor's in marketing and public relations from UW-Whitewater in 1992, Vodenlich earned his master's in business administration from the university in 1994.

St. Mary's (CA)
Division 1
MORAGA, Calif. Saint Mary's Baseball has hired Jack Meggs to join the Gaels coaching staff after serving as the hitting coach at the University of Kansas during the 2021-22 school year.
Meggs will be in charge of working with Gael hitters and outfielders and will also be integral in coaching base running and in recruiting. Before becoming the full-time hitting coach at Kansas in August of 2021, he served as a graduate assistant with the Jayhawks while earning his master's degree in sports management.
"Jack Meggs is one of the brightest, most well-rounded, young coaches in the country," said SMC Head Coach [Greg Moore](https://smcgaels.com/coaches.aspxrc=1283). "He's the rare combo of knowledge, work-ethic, and genuine care for players. He guides them to be their best. With Coach Meggs, Saint Mary's will continue to be one of the best places in the country to develop as a pro and as a person."
The Seattle, Wash. native was a communications major at the University of Washington where he was a major part of the Husky lineup for four years. As a Husky, Meggs helped lead the team to regionals at both Ole Miss and Vanderbilt. He finished his career at Washington ranked fourth all time in both games started and games played.
In 2016, Meggs was an All-Pac 12 First Team selection as a center fielder and was also named to the All-Pac 12 Defensive Team. A two-year captain for the Huskies, Meggs was selected All-Pac 12 again in 2017 on his way to being a 10th round pick (291st overall) by the Oakland A's.
Shortly after his arrival, Meggs was selected New York Penn League Player of the Week after homering twice and hitting over .500 during week one of the 2017 season where hit .290 in 20 games that year.
After two years in the A's organization Meggs went on to sign a free-agent deal with the Milwaukee Brewers in 2020, but ultimately landed at KU following the cancellation of the 2020 Minor League Baseball season due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
"I want to congratulate Coach Moore on hiring Jack Meggs as an assistant coach at Saint Mary's," said the recently-retired former Kansas Head Coach Ritch Price. "Coach Meggs is a rising star in our game. He brings energy, enthusiasm and passion to the ballpark every day. I know he will be successful in helping Saint. Mary's achieve their goals on the field, in the classroom, and in the community."
In his first year with the Jayhawk hitters he guided a potent offense that more than doubled home run output from the previous season, from 27 to 55. The team batting average jumped by six points, extra base hits by 30%, stolen bases by nearly 20%, and four hitters were named All Big 12.
"First off I'd like to thank Coach Price for the opportunity he gave me at the University of Kansas," Meggs said. "He is one of the great mentors in our game and a future Hall of Famer, I can't thank him enough. That being said I'm honored to have the chance to work with Coach Moore and his staff, and to join the SMC family. I've enjoyed getting to know the players and I can't wait until we're all on field together for day one. Go Gaels!"
Meggs was born in Chico, CA to Teresa and Lindsay Meggs. Lindsay was the Head Baseball Coach at the University of Washington from 2010-2022 and Teresa is a registered nurse in the Seattle area.
Meggs has an older brother, Joe, and older sister, Kelly. Joe served as an assistant coach at the University of Washington, where he played collegiately before spending time in the Los Angeles Dodgers farm system. Kelly played college basketball at UC Irvine and college softball at the University of Washington before becoming a physical therapist in the southern California area.

Division 1
Bobby Bordieri joined the Siena Baseball program in September 2022. He arrives in Loudonville after spending the past two seasons as the lead assistant coach and recruiting coordinator at Division III Roger Williams University.
We are extremely happy to have Coach Bordieri with us, said head coach Tony Rossi upon Bordieri's hiring. Over the last several years, he has gained varied experience with several programs which will add valuable knowledge to the hitting and defensive areas of our team.

Under his tutelage, the Hawks hit a whopping .299 while averaging 8.7 runs per contest, and shattered the program single-season records for runs scored (347), RBI (304), and stolen bases (104).
Bordieri first broke into the collegiate coaching ranks spending a year apiece as a graduate assistant at NAIA Keiser University, and as a volunteer assistant at DIII Westfield State University, where he worked with the hitters, outfielders, and assisted in player development. He also spent the summer of 2021 with the Ocean State Waves of the NECBL. Bordieri has also coached with the L&M travel baseball program for the past six years, where he helped develop 50 future collegiate baseball players including 19 Division I commits.

Robbie Dombrowski was named Cornell College's head baseball coach in July 2022.
Dombrowski, a 2018 St. Norbert College graduate and three-year starting catcher for the Green Knights, comes to the Hilltop following successful NCAA Division I coaching stints at University of Evansville and Central Michigan University.
For a young coach, this is an unbelievable opportunity and I cant wait to get started, said Dombrowski, a native of Delafield, Wis. I cant imagine walking into a better situation with administration who care about the program. The people are passionate about Cornell athletics. The closeness of the campus community is also a big thing for me.
Dombrowski served as hitting coach during a break-through 2022 season at Evansville. The Purple Aces finished 32-24 overall, placed second in the Missouri Valley Conference and shattered the school record for home runs in a season with 77. Evansville ranked among the league leaders in all offensive categories and landed four all-MVC players under Dombrowskis guidance.
We are very excited to have Robbie join our team at Cornell, said Cornell Interim Director of Athletics Jeff Meeker. Robbies collection of coaching experiences, his coaching philosophy and familiarity with Midwest Conference baseball stood out. Most impressive is his energy and enthusiasm for leading our baseball team. He has a clear vision for success and his approach will impact the young men in our program.
Dombrowski was Director of Baseball Operations at Central Michigan in 2020-21. CMU won the 2021 Mid-American Conference and advanced to the regional final, bowing out with a 42-18 record.
Dombrowski was a four-year letterwinner and two-time team captain at St. Norbert. As a junior, he played a key role on the Green Knights record-breaking 2017 squad that won the MWC Tournament, qualified for the NCAAs and finished 30-13. Dombrowski compiled career totals of 101 hits, 73 RBIs and 61 runs.
St. Norbert won 94 games and finished 47-17 in MWC play during Dombrowskis four playing seasons in De Pere, Wis. The Green Knights claimed MWC North Division titles in 2016, 2017 and 2018. Dombrowski played for Tom Winske, the MWCs all-time leader for baseball coaching wins.
I think my experience in the Midwest Conference is going to pay dividends, Dombrowski said. My expectation is to win the thing regularly. I know the talent is there to do it. Cornell has the foundation in place.
Dombrowski was a member of the Deans List and an academic all-MWC performer. He also earned two varsity letters in football for the Green Knights.
Dombrowski earned bachelors degrees from St. Norbert in biopsychology and communication and media studies. He obtained his masters in sports administration from Belhaven (Jackson, Miss.) University in 2020.
Dombrowski served as hitting and catching coach at Belhaven (2018-19). He returned to St. Norbert in 2019-20 as assistant baseball coach and recruiting coordinator.
Dombrowski was head coach for collegiate summer teams in the Dairyland Collegiate League, Ohio Valley League and Western Canadian Baseball League. His 2021 team, the Creek Mapaches, won the Dairyland Collegiate League.
Dombrowski attended Kettle Moraine High School in Wales, Wis. He led his prep baseball team to the 2013 state tournament and played in the Wisconsin Baseball Coaches Association (WBCA) All-Star Classic.
Dombrowski is motivated to continue his winning ways by instilling a fun culture on and off the field at Cornell.
I want every kid that comes through our program to feel that theyve had the most fun playing baseball in their life, Dombrowski said. They can expect a high-energy guy that will give them my best effort every day. I want them to know this is their program, just as much as it is mine. I want them to see their full potential.
There are no limits for Cornell College baseball. We can take this thing as far as we want to go. I want our players to believe that.
As part of our COVID-19 safety plan, the indoor sessions traditionally held on the first day of camp will be shared online.
Sessions will be accessible for the week prior to camp. They are available on-demand and can be completed at the athlete's
convenience.
This approach allows us to continue offering these valuable sessions so athletes arrive to camp ready to maximize the experience,
while still maintaining a safe experience.
