RON RIGGLE, JR. Head Baseball Coach Ron Riggle is currently in his 22nd season on the coaching staff for the Loggers and his 10th season as head coach. In addition to his coaching duties, Ron has served as the college’s athletic director since 1997. In this role, he takes a keen interest in the success of each athletic program at the college, working diligently to attract and retain gifted, hard-working student athletes to LLCC. While coaching at Lincoln Land, Ron has been a driving force in the continued success of the program, including the national championship teams in 1994 and 2000 and the 1993 and 1995 NJCAA national tournament teams. During Ron’s LLCC coaching career, the Loggers have won more than 600 games. Ron’s expertise and enthusiasm are built on the foundation of his own successes as a student athlete in both high school and college. A former Springfield High School All- City pitcher, he still holds a number of city records including a perfect 0.00 ERA record for All-City performances. Ron won a record 13 games as a senior at Springfield High School. He also won 14 games as a starter for the Loggers during the 1987 and 1988 seasons at LLCC. After Lincoln Land, Ron went on to pitch for Coastal Carolina University in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. He pitched on the team that won back-to- back Big South Conference championships in 1989 and 1990. Ron and his wife, Angie, currently reside in Springfield and are the proud parents of Seth (17), Noah (15), Connor (14) and Becca (5).
