The Marshall University baseball team is off to a great start this season as they’ve taken all but one series so far during conference play. Talent from players can take a team far, but it’s the coaching that takes teams to the next level.
Head coach Jeff Waggoner is in his 10th season with the Herd and has achieved numerous accomplishments as a coach. He’s helped players break school records, personal records and enter the MLB draft.
The Alliance, Ohio native didn’t always have his eyes set on baseball though. After receiving a sports management degree from Cleveland State University, he went on to receive his masters in educational psychology from the College of Saint Rose.
