Camp Director: Dan Giordano

 

Dan Giordano begins his fifth full season as the Head Coach of the Stormy Petrel baseball program. Giordano is no stranger to the program as he played for the Petrels from 1999-2002. He was hired as the pitching coach upon graduation and has been involved in several camps, clinics and showcases held at Oglethorpe.

Giordano was named interim coach in March of 2004 and led the team to a fourth place finish at the SCAC Championships held at Oglethorpe. Their fourth place finish is the best SCAC finish in the history of the program. Two players were named to the All-Region South 2nd Team and three players made the All-SCAC Team.

In 2005, Giordano took over the program full time in February and inherited a small squad of 12 players. Despite the lack of depth the Petrels battled throughout the year and managed to finish just three games out of playoff contention. In 2006, the Petrels went 11-29, almost doubling the wins from the previous year and fell one game short of postseason play.

The Petrels have qualified for the postseason the last two seasons and look to make it three straight in 2009. The Petrels in 2009 look to shed the label of a rebuilding program with a strong showing in the upcoming campaign.

Since Giordano took over the program the Petrels have had eleven All-SCAC members and two ABCA All-South All-Americans.
