Arizona baseball to hire Boston College’s Kevin Vance as pitching coach, per report

Arizona has apparently found the guy to help solves its pitching woes.

D1Baseball.com’s Kendall Rogers is reporting the Wildcats will hire Boston College assistant Kevin Vance as pitching coach, replacing Dave Lawn, who was let go Monday after eight years with the program.

Vance, 32, is a San Diego native who spent the past two seasons as BC’s pitching coach and recruiting coordinator. Before that he coached five seasons at Rhode Island.

Boston College made its first NCAA Tournament appearance since 2017 earlier this month, losing in the Tuscaloosa Regional, and finished the season with a 37-20 record that tied the most wins in program history.
