WVU Baseball Announces Assistant Coach Hire

West Virginia fills out its coaching staff.

A little over a week ago, West Virginia lost assistant coach Mark Ginther to Big 12 foe Oklahoma State. Wednesday morning, head baseball coach Randy Mazey announced his replacement - Jimmy Roesinger.

"We are very excited to have Jimmy join our staff," Mazey said in the university's press release. "He brings great energy and work ethic and has been very instrumental in the success of the program recently at the Air Force Academy. He has a great baseball background and I know he has the ability to make our players better. Just as importantly, he will fit in perfectly with the culture we have built for Mountaineer baseball." 

Jimmy Roesinger has been with Air Force since 2016 and has had his hands in just about every facet of the program from hitting, base running, fielding, and of course, recruiting. 

"I am extremely grateful for the opportunity to join the West Virginia staff," said Roesinger. "Thank you to Coach Mazey, Coach Sabins, Coach Garcia, and the rest of the staff for giving me this opportunity at WVU. I am beyond excited and deeply honored to join the Mountaineer family and help lead the program on another championship run. I am looking forward to the opportunity to work with these talented student-athletes and help them grow both as players and individuals. I want to thank the Air Force Academy for the opportunity for the last 8 seasons and helping mold me into who I am as a coach today. I look forward to the next chapter and the start of the journey for the next championship run!"
