Coach Schroeder Named Regional Coach of the Year
2/7/2012
Jeff Schroeder can add another award to his impressive list of coaching accolades – ABCA/Diamond Sports Regional Coach of the Year. The long-time SBS Head Baseball Coach received this honor from the American Baseball Coaches Association.
“Jeff is more than an exceptional coach. He is a mentor who encourages, supports, teaches, models and lives a life that ultimately young men want to follow,” Dr. Jeff Williams, Head of School, said. “He uses the game of baseball to uniquely bring out the very best in every player.”
Coach Schroeder is currently the Athletic Director at SBS and is preparing for his 24th season as Head Baseball Coach.
“My ability to accept this award on behalf of our school would not be possible if it were not for the exceptional student athletes, coaches and administration that I am surrounded by,” Coach Schroeder said.
SBS hired Coach Schroeder in 1989 as the Head Baseball Coach. Since then, he has earned 3 State Championships, 4 State Runner Up Titles, 11 Final Four/Regional Championships, 19 Bi-District Playoff Appearances, and 9 District Championships. During the 2011 season, he celebrated his 400th career win.
Congratulations to Coach Schroeder on this prestigious award!
