Coach Profile

Head Coach Kevin Seibel #21

3rd Season

Career Winning Percentage: .542

Coach Kevin Seibel is entering his third season as head coach of the UW-Fond du Lac Falcons squad. Kevin led the team to their first winning season in 2006 and again in 2007. He prides himself on continuing the success that has been built over the last couple seasons.

Kevin was part of the team as a player from 2004-2005. He had a career batting average of .363 and holds the single season batting average of .483. Kevin also was a pivotal part of the pitching staff with a career record of 5-5, while throwing twice as many innings as any other pitcher over any two year span and averaged over one strikeout per inning pitched.

Coach Seibel’s method of using many different line-ups and using the players’ versatility to play many positions has taken advantage of opposing defenses. He is a strong believer of using hit and runs along with steals to get runners in scoring position. His approach to pitching has also been successful. Kevin believes in a strict 18 pitch per inning maximum limit, and his system has resulted in the team having three pitchers with earned run averages under 2.00 the past two seasons. He believes in attacking hitters with the least amount of pitches possible and emphasizes getting lots of groundballs.

Coach Seibel is a graduate of New Holstein High School, where he was an all-conference pitcher. After playing for the Falcons for a couple seasons, he was hired as the head coach at the age of 20.

 

2008 Season Preview

The 2008 season looks to be another step forward in the Falcon program. Returning players include the ace of the pitching staff, Alex Neubauer, who had a 1.62 E.R.A. last season. Others include second baseman/shortstop Ryan Lloyd who looks to continue being the leader on the field. Also returning are third baseman Nick Ball and outfielder Jim Wetzel.

Newcomers to the squad are a bunch of All-Area and All-Conference players in catcher John Cetnar, pitchers Dustin Andrus and Jeff Groleau, infielder Kenny Kiefer, and first baseman Andy Weiglein. The team is looking to excel with nine new faces to the program. The line-up is also taking a transformation from being a team of light hitting speedsters into a line-up filled with power bats. Outfielders Kory Pieper, Cyle Guell, and Ryan Giese look to compete for outfield spots and pitcher Tom Lloyd looks to bolster the rotation. Overall, with all the additions, it looks to be a great year for the Falcons.
