Jon Shehan– Head Coach of the Men’s Baseball Team at Millersville University and Current Sport Management
Graduate Student
Coach John Shehan can’t remember a time when he didn’t love playing baseball. He started playing at age four or five, played
all through middle school, high school, and then for Millersville University up until 2004. After his last season with the Ma-
rauder’s, he signed a free agent contract with the Atlanta Braves organization. During the off season, he was finishing his degree
when reality set in. His professional career was not going the way that was planned and he was not a hundred passionate about
teaching. He realized he could have the best of both worlds as a coach.
He became interim head coach in 2008, where he took a 9-37 team to their first division championship in eight years. Last sea-
son his club finished 44-12. They won the PSAC East, swept the NCAA Atlantic Regional, and reached the NCAA Division II
Championship for jus the second time in school history. Coach Shehan’s most memorable moment comes the NCAA Atlantic
Regional Championship, when Corey Phelan slammed into the wall to catch the final out. Ac-cording to Coach, Corey is possi-
bly the best defensive outfield to play at Millersville in 100 years and he was also one of the three players who went through the
9-37 2007 season.
Below is more information about Coach and his favorite things in life.
Originally from? Strasburg, PA
Most Thankful for? Having a wife and a family that are sincerely supportive.
Favorite Baseball Movie? Bill Durham.
Most Proud of? Being a dad
Favorite Place to Vacation? Rocky Mountain States
