Maryland baseball associate head coach Matt Swope will be the program’s next head coach, it was announced Monday. Swope will be formally introduced in a press conference Wednesday afternoon.
“This is truly a dream come true, to be named the head baseball coach at the University of Maryland,” Swope said in a release. “Growing up just down the road from College Park, then playing for the Terps, returning to join the staff, and now being able to lead the Terps is something that means the world to me.
Earlier Monday, it was reported that former head coach Rob Vaughn was leaving Maryland to take the same position at Alabama.
