Tim McDonough

Third Season North Central, 1995

Tim McDonough is in his third season as head baseball coach and is the fourth head coach in the 56-year history of the Lewis baseball program. McDonough guided the Flyers to 20 victories in 2009, the most in seven years. Three players, all McDonough recruits, were named all-conference. Pitcher Joe Scumaci was named to the All-GLVC Second Team thanks to a 2.42 earned run average, the best by a Lewis starter in nearly a decade. Chris McCall became Lewis’ first all-conference catcher in five years when he was named to the third team. Slugging Scott Householder rounded out Lewis’ all-conference selection by earning third team honors. In the classroom, Ryan Koerner took home CoSIDA Academic All-District Second Team honors. In McDonough’s first season, the Flyers finished with their most conference victories since 2002. The 2008 season also saw Lewis’ first All-GLVC pitcher (Jon Guzzo) since 2000. Offensively, the Flyers’ team batting average was its highest since 2002 and improved by .66 from the previous season. Prior to arriving at Lewis, McDonough spent five seasons as the top assis- tant at Northern Illinois University, where he served as the program’s recruiting coordinator and hitting instructor. He also was an assistant at Kishwaukee Com- munity College and North Central College. McDonough’s success as a recruiter resulted in consecutive nationally- ranked recruiting classes in 2005 and 2006. His 2006 class was lauded by the publication Collegiate Baseball as the No. 60 class nationally and featured five players from the state of Illinois, all ranked among the Land of Lincoln’s Top 50 “Cream of the Crop” by the Illinois High School Coaches Association. The group ranked second among Mid-American Conference classes and above Minnesota, San Jose State and Missouri State. The talented 2006 group surpassed the previous season’s No. 70 class ranking when Collegiate Baseball recognized NIU’s 2005 newcomers alongside national powers UCLA, Texas Tech, Central Florida and Baylor. It was the first time in over a decade the Huskies earned such prestigious accolades for its baseball recruiting. McDonough made an immediate impact on the Huskie hitters during his first season at NIU. The 2003 squad set numerous season batting records, including hits (625), home runs (70) and runs scored (408). As a team, NIU hit .315, with seven players hitting better than .300. In year two under McDonough, the Huskies tied a school record with 21 triples and posted the second-highest marks in school annals in many offensive categories. In 2005, Jeremy Busch became the first Huskie position player in 25 seasons to earn first-team All-MAC honors after hitting .340. In 2006, McDonough helped outfielder Brian Toner improve his batting average over 130 points from the previous season on his way to a first-team All-MAC selection, and first baseman Scott Simon became the NIU career hit leader. The duo of Simon and Toner hit .383 and .382, respectively, in the MAC. During his time at Kishwaukee, the 2002 team posted a 41-16 record and had six players selected in the 2002 MLB Amateur Draft, half of whom were infield- ers coached by McDonough. McDonough began his coaching career as an assistant at his alma mater, North Central College (Naperville, Ill.). A nationally-ranked NCAA Division III baseball program, North Central won two College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin (CCIW) titles and earned two regional berths (1996 and 1998) during McDonough’s four years on staff, culminating with a final national ranking of No. 15 following the 1998 season. During his time as an assistant at NCC, McDonough also served as head coach for the Prairie Gravel Baseball Club of the Metro Collegiate Summer Baseball League. His squad won three-consecutive Metro College Summer Baseball League championships while sending 20 players to the professional baseball draft. A standout infielder during his collegiate playing career, McDonough earned first-team All-CCIW honors in 1994 and helped the Cardinals capture a confer- ence crown. In 1995, McDonough garnered a first-team nod while being named CCIW Player of the Year and winning the league’s Crown. His successful sea- son was capped with recognition as a Division III All-American by the American Baseball Coaches Association. McDonough graduated from NCC with a bachelor’s degree in speech/broadcast communications in 1995. A 1991 graduate of Burbank’s St. Laurence High School, McDonough is originally from Bridgeview, Ill. McDonough and his wife Amy have six children: Anthony (12), Jacob (11), Samantha (10), Christopher (9), Teagan (2) and Finn (1).
