Sources: @GamecockBSB head coach Kevin Schnall is making quite a statement, as the #Gamecocks will hire Wake Forest hitting coach Bill Cilento in the same role, I'm told. Cilento has spent the last 17 seasons at Wake, and has had some HC opportunities in the past. Strong hire by the #gamecocks.

“Today is a humbling and exciting day for my family and me. To leave the place that has been home for 25 years, it had to be the perfect opportunity at the perfect time. That is exactly what the University of South Carolina represents. This program embodies everything that is great about college baseball with a championship tradition, a passionate fan base, and a commitment to excellence.
I am grateful for the trust placed in us and we promise to build a program founded on development, accountability and an unwavering pursuit of championships. We are excited to get to Columbia and begin this next chapter together.
Our connection to the state of South Carolina is unmatched and that will be the foundation of our recruiting efforts. We will work tirelessly to build a roster that reflects the pride and talent that exist throughout this great state. Relationships matter, and we will invest in them every day.
Lastly, I cannot thank Athletics Director Jeremiah Donati, Chief of Staff Tyson Lusk, and President Michael Amiridis enough for the opportunity to lead Gamecock baseball. Together, we will work relentlessly to build this program to the championship standard that Gamecock fans expect and deserve.
The work begins immediately!”
– Kevin Schnall, Head Coach
