For the second year in a row St. Joseph's University of Long Island's baseball head coach Tom Caputo was named Coach of the Year. The Eastern College Athletic Conference (ECAC) announced its 2024 Division III Baseball All-ECAC Team and major award winners last week and Caputo took home his second straight award.
In just his second season with St. Joseph's Caputo led his team to a record-breaking 33 wins this season, and a first place finish. The Golden Eagles also had an unbelievable, and program record, 19-game win streak this year. Their first place finish was their third consecutive Skyline Conference regular season and championship tournament titles and they advanced to the NCAA Div. III Regional Tournament.
Caputo also hit a milestone earlier in the year with his 200th career win as a head coach, combined with his record at Dowling College, and was named Skyline Conference Coach of the Year for the second consecutive year as well as D3Baseball.com Region Three Coach of the Year.
