Schlossnagle joined the TCU coaching staff in 2003 and became just the program’s ninth coach since 1940.

Jim Schlossnagle led a staff anchored by current Tampa Rays star David Price, and it?s a pleasure to announce that Jim will lead the 2013 Collegiate National Team as its field manager.?

?Three-Peat? No Easy Feat ? Throughout NCAA Division I Sports History
The South Carolina baseball progam’s quest for a third straight NCAA title caused us to dive into the record books for various college sports, seeking to gain historical perspective on how difficult it is to “three-peat” in different NCAA-sponsored sports. A summary of the basic findings follows below (we may pass along more later, particularly if the Gamecocks win tonight’s game-2 in the best-of-3 series): When looking only at the 16 “team-based” sports currently sponsored on the Division I level (baseball, men’s & women’s basketball, women’s field hockey, football, M & W ice hockey, M & W lacrosse, M & W soccer, softball, M & W volleyball, and M & W water polo) … (Essentially, the notes below illustrate that winning three straight NCAA titles, particularly in a team-based sport, is no easy feat …) ? A team has repeated as the outright national champion three (or more) consecutive years�in a team-based sport a total of only 29 times in these 16 sports. ? As we all know, USC is the only team ever to win three straight D-I baseball titles (5, 1970-74). ? In men’s basketball, UCLA is the only team ever to win three (or more) consecutive NCAA [...]

Notre Dame Headed To ACC
Baseball Among ND Sports… Officials from Notre Dame and the Atlantic Coast Conference announced on Wednesday that the school is leaving the Big East for the ACC. All Notre Dame sports except football and hockey are scheduled the conference for the 2015-2016 academic year, but ND Athletic Director Jack Swarbrick said that the move could come sooner. Current Fighting Irish baseball coach Mik Aoki is getting ready for his third season as ND’s head coach after leaving Boston College. Aoki released a few comments on the impending move. On joining the ACC ? ?From a baseball perspective, this is obviously a very positive thing for our program. This is the second time that I?ve gone through this process, the first time when I was at Boston College. I?m excited about going to the ACC. The BIG EAST was moving in the right direction with the recent additions of UCF, Houston and Memphis and there is a bit of nostalgia leaving the league considering my career in the conference. I know the league will move on and be successful, but I?m excited about where we are going.? On baseball in the ACC ? ?Baseball is a really big deal to the [...]
