CHARGER BASEBALL HISTORY

Compiling a complete history of University of New Haven Baseball would take far more than one page, and the countless stories could go on and on, so we’ll call this a “Brief History” of Charger Baseball.

The University of New Haven has one of the most storied baseball programs in the history of NCAA Division II. Ask any fan of UNH Baseball, or really any fan of a team in the Northeast, and they’ll tell you that a discussion of Charger Baseball begins and ends with one man - legendary former head coach Frank “Porky” Vieira. Vieira is the true “father” of the UNH Baseball program, and until the 2007 season, the only coach the school had ever known. He founded the program in 1963. Under Vieira, who retired following the 2006 season, the UNH baseball program posted an all-time record of 1,127-324-6 in 44 seasons. That included a string of 42 straight winning seasons from 1963 to 2004, and 43 winning seasons overall. No matter how you break down the numbers, Vieira is one of the all-time greatest in the college game. At the start of the 2015 season, he was second all-time among Division II coaches with a career winning percentage of .776, and fourth among D-II coaches in total victories. “Coach V” also ranks eighth on the all-time, all-division coaching records list in terms of winning percentage and 38th in total wins. He is one of only 39 coaches to ever win at least 1,100 games at any division of college baseball.

UNH Baseball: By The Numbers Seasons: 53 (1963 - 2015) All-Time Record: 1,357 - 485 - 7 (1,816) Winning Percentage: 73.4% Regional Appearances: 33 (28 NCAA, 5 NAIA) World Series Berths: 17 (15 NCAA, 2 NAIA) Postseason Wins: 83 (5th all-time) Consec.

Luis Obispo, which later had its participation vacated due to ineligible players. Coach Vieira is the first one to tell you that a great coach can’t do anything without great players - and UNH has certainly had its share. UNH has produced over 80 players who have gone on to play professional baseball, including 10 players who made it to Major League Baseball.

Notably, UNH is one of only 14 schools to have produced a player that would later go on to win the Major League Baseball Cy Young Award. Former Charger great Steve Bedrosian went on to earn the NL Cy Young award while a member of the Philadelphia Phillies in 1987, saving 40 of the team’s 80 wins that season. Cameron Drew was the program’s first-ever First Round Draft Pick with his selection in 1985. Dave Wallace has been a respected professional coach since 1981, and won a World Series as pitching and was named Coach of the Year numerous coach with the Boston Red Sox in 2004.

Vieira’s achievements have not gone unrecognized by the media or his peers. Featured in several publications including Sports Illustrated, he received the “Gold Key” from the Connecticut Sports Writers Association

Over 250 people, including 45 former players and coaches, turned out on December 8, 2006 to help send Coach Vieira off into retirement with a “Toast & Roast” Celebration.

The University of New Haven has embarked on a major field renovation campaign. Vieira Field already had new sunken concrete dugouts with double-tier benches constructed prior to the 2013 season and its entire infield playing surface replaced prior to the 2008 season. Additionally, the fencing around Vieira Field was upgraded with new windscreens in 2012. With help from alumni and friends of the program, the renovations hope to continue at Vieira Field. A top-notch facility will help recruit strong student-athletes, showcase our past successes and achieve new ones. Included in the renovations: a new scoreboard, 200 stadium seats, additional spectator seating, padded wall bearing the Charger logo behind home plate. Interested in becoming a supporter?

Just the third coach in 51 seasons of New Haven baseball, legendary head coach Frank “Porky”

Prior to his stint as head coach, Celano served three seasons as an assistant coach at Dowling from 2001-03. The Setauket, N.Y. native also served as the college’s Director of Sports Information from 2003-04.

HISTORY & RECORDS

In his first season as the Chargers’ skipper, Celano led New Haven to a 25-19-1 record. The spring of 2012 included the club’s fourth consecutive trip to the Northeast-10 Championship – highlighted by a First Round road win at Pace, the NE-10 Southwest Division champion. The triumph was New Haven’s first postseason victory since 2009.

During his seven seasons as head coach, the Golden Lions recorded 20 or more wins six times. In 2006, Celano led Dowling to 22 victories in its final 25 games to advance to the NCAA postseason. He also coached three student-athletes that were selected in the MLB First Year Player Draft, three All-America and 31 all-conference honorees during his tenure.

2015 REVIEW

Also the pitching coach for the Chargers, Celano mentored All-Region honorees Pat Simone and Peter Jay in 2013. Simone, who was also a First Team All-NE-10 honoree, ranked second in the nation and led the NE-10 with a WHIP of 0.81 while Jay broke the New Haven single-season record with 14 saves in addition to a 0.26 earned run average – ceding just one earned run in 34.1 innings of work.

Before helming the dugout at Vieira Field, Celano completed seven years as head coach at Dowling College, where he led the Golden Lions to six postseason appearances – including four trips to the NCAA Division II Championship. The skipper guided Dowling to its first NCAA Division II World Series and was named the Division II National Coach of the Year in 2009, a season that also marked the Golden Lions’ first NCAA East Region Championship a program-record 35 wins. Also the ABCA East Region Coach of the Year in 2009, Celano earned his first Coach of the Year honor in 2008 from the East Coast Conference.

2016 OUTLOOK

In 2013, Celano led New Haven to a 34-16 record and its first-ever Northeast-10 Championship in five seasons as a member of the prestigious conference. Also the co-champions of the NE10 Southwest Division, the Chargers went on to earn the No. 3 seed at the NCAA East Region Championship. New Haven recorded its first NCAA postseason win since 2003 with a 3-1 victory over eventual region champion Franklin Pierce. The Chargers’ 34 wins are the third-most in program history, two shy of the 36 victories accumulated by the 1989 team that finished as a National Finalist.

Vieira spoke highly of Celano at the time of his hiring on July 22, 2011. “It was impossible to find a better match as the next head coach. By hiring Chris, the program is pointed in the direction of the World Series,” Vieira said.

2016 PLAYERS

This past spring, Celano led New Haven to a 23-13 record overall, while recording a 17-9 record in the Northeast-10 Conference and a 12-6 record in the Southwest Division. 2014 culminated in a third straight trip to the NE-10 Conference Championships that included a first round win against Le Moyne. Additionally, New Haven earned several All-Conference accolades as seven student-athletes were honored by the NE-10 for their on-field performance.

The bullpen also returns a solid core as three key members return from a year ago. Senior Brian Caselli earned ABCA/Rawlings All-East Region Second Team accolades in 2015 after posting a 2-1 record with four saves and a 1.56 ERA.

2015 REVIEW

New Haven will look to replace three key members of the starting lineup as Kyle Cullen (.305-3-19, 9 2B, 3 3B), Zach Collett (.261-4-19, 4 3B) and Brendan O’Reilly (.245, 14 SB, .333 OBP) were all lost to graduation.

As a freshman he made a splash out of the gate, throwing two shutout innings in his collegiate debut against Northwestern.

UNIVERSITY OF NEW HAVEN DEPARTMENT OF ATHLETICS DEPARTMENT OF ATHLETICS MISSION STATEMENT The mission of the department of intercollegiate athletics is to support the mission of the university and to integrate intercollegiate athletics into higher education so that the educational experience of the student-athlete is paramount. The department will provide growth opportunities to achieve in a nationally competitive intercollegiate program that attracts, nurtures and graduates student-athletes who under the guidance of a quality staff, represent the University of New Haven with character and integrity while achieving academic excellence, serving the community and pursuing excellence in their respective sports. DEPARTMENT OF ATHLETICS PHILOSOPHY Higher education has lasting importance on an individual’s future success. For this reason, the emphasis for the student-athlete experience at the University of New Haven is a comprehensive program of learning and development in a personal setting. As an NCAA Division II program, our approach provides growth opportunities through academic achievement, learning in high-level athletic competition and development of positive societal attitudes in service to community. The balance and integration of these different areas of learning opportunity provide our student-athletes a path to graduation while cultivating a variety of skills and knowledge for life ahead. The University of New Haven seeks to provide the world with leaders who can make a positive difference in a global society. Studentathletes are afforded unique opportunities for leadership because of the visibility provided through athletics competition. UNH’s intercollegiate program provides opportunities for its student-athletes to develop moral virtues, such as courage, self-confidence, and integrity and to learn communication and teamwork skills associated with outstanding leadership. Thus the Department of Athletics helps the University satisfy its primary aspiration, which is to prepare students to lead purposeful and fulfilling lives in a global society through experiential, collaborative, and discovery-based learning. The Department of Athletics is committed to delivering intercollegiate athletics programs that are consistent with the University’s mission and generates the trust and support of its various constituencies. The goal of the department is to field sports teams that compete successfully against other NCAA Division II teams while upholding the academic standards of the University of New Haven. The department is also committed to conducting its programs in strict adherence to the policies, rules and regulations set by the University’s administration, Board of Governors, the NCAA and the Northeast-10 Conference. Through its programs, the department gives its student-athletes of different genders, races, religions, national origins and sexual orientation opportunities to participate in intercollegiate competition. The intercollegiate program will function free of discrimination with a University commitment to the adherence to Title IX and the Office of Civil Rights guidelines. A major goal of the Department of Athletics is to help student-athletes realize the full potential of their athletic abilities while also increasing their intellectual capabilities and providing them a meaningful opportunity to earn a baccalaureate degree. The department will not compromise its commitment to educate and graduate its student-athletes. Department of Athletics personnel are expected to represent the University in a manner consistent with UNH’s principles and values. All personnel are expected to perform their responsibilities with the highest standards of integrity, ethical behavior and sportsmanship at all times. Coaches and staff are expected to treat student-athletes fairly and with respect and to facilitate leadership that helps them mature physically, intellectually, emotionally and socially.
