Hawks hire Oringer
- Updated: December 12, 2023
GOFFSTOWN — Harry Oringer, the 2023 New England Intercollegiate Baseball Association (NEIBA) Assistant Coach of the Year, has been named the next head coach of the Saint Anselm College baseball program, vice president for athletics Daron Montgomery announced Tuesday.
Oringer, who most recently spent six seasons as an assistant coach at Endicott College, becomes the 12th skipper in the 53-year history of the Hawks baseball program, succeeding Jerod Edmondson.
Endicott was twice named the NEIBA Division III Team of the Year and posted a program-record 45 wins last year on the way to a 2023 NCAA Division III World Series appearance, ranking as high as No. 4 nationally.
Prior to his assistant coaching stint with the Gulls, Oringer served as an assistant coach at Bucknell University during the 2017 season. While at Bucknell, Oringer worked with infielders and hitters, coached first base during games, was responsible for scouting reports and defensive-alignment strategies, and recruited on a national scale.
Before joining the coaching ranks, Oringer played two seasons in Sydney, Australia, in the New South Wales Baseball League. As a member of the Ryde Hawks, he played second base and competed against the Australian World Baseball Classic National Team.
As a student-athlete at Endicott, Oringer was a standout player for the Gulls and was a three-time Commonwealth Coast Conference All-Conference (CCC) honoree. He was named a D3Baseball.com Second Team All-American as a junior and received D3Baseball.com Preseason First Team All-America recognition entering his senior year. As a senior, he was named Endicott’s Male Scholar-Athlete of the Year.
Upon graduating, he ranked first all-time in games played, assists, and double plays turned, while ranking second in runs scored and walks, fourth in hits, total bases, and stolen bases, fifth in RBI, sixth in on-base percentage, and ninth in doubles.
A native of Dartmouth, Mass., Oringer graduated from Endicott in 2015 with a bachelor’s degree in physical education with a concentration in exercise science.
“My goal is to build on the baseball program’s foundational values set forth by the alumni, and my predecessor, Coach Edmondson,” Oringer said. “I am excited to build relationships with the student-athletes, and help them develop athletically, socially, academically, and professionally.”
