Mauriello Promoted to Associate Head Baseball Coach

MARYVILLE, Tenn. - Head Baseball Coach Clint Helton announced on Monday the promotion of Rocky Mauriello to Associate Head Coach after serving as assistant coach and pitching coach for four seasons.

"One of the most rewarding parts of coaching is watching former players grow, not only as people but as professionals," Helton said. " Rocky is a great example of that. Having the opportunity to coach him as a player and now watch him continue to grow in this profession is something I take a lot of pride in."

Mauriello played baseball for the Scots from 2016-2019, posting a 1.67 ERA over 24 appearances, was voted team captain, was a three-time recipient of the Ken Stinnet Coaches Award, and was named an assistant coach in November of 2022. 

"I'm extremely grateful to Coach Helton for the opportunity to serve as Associate Head Coach," Maureillo said. "As an alum, Maryville College and this baseball program have had a tremendous impact on my life. While I'll never be able to match that, I've worked hard over the past few years to make a meaningful impact on this program in return. I want to thank Coach Helton for the trust he's placed in me. I also want to thank our players, past and present, for their hard work, commitment, and dedication to elevating Maryville Baseball. I'm incredibly proud of what we've accomplished together, and I believe we're all even more excited about the future. Go Scots!"

Mauriello has been a part of one of the most successful periods of Maryville College Baseball, having been a coach for two NCAA Tournament teams, two regular-season conference championships, and one conference tournament championship. He has also had success as a coach in collegiate summer leagues, where he coaches for the Traverse City Pit Spitters. While there, he helped coach the team to a 2021 championship. 

Under Mauriello, the Scots pitching staff has seen tremendous growth and success -
