UW-Superior Baseball
Head Coach

Eddy Morgan
Head Coach

Eddy Morgan is entering his sixth season as the head coach of the Yellowjacket baseball team.

In just five seasons, Morgan has won more games (76) than any other coach in the history of Yellowjacket baseball.  In 2010, the Yellowjackets posted double-digit wins (10) in conference play, their highest conference win total in nearly 40 years.  As a result, they were in the hunt for a playoff spot berth until the season’s final weekend, ultimately falling one game short of the conference tournament.  A year later, a young team went 14-25 while playing one of the toughest schedules in the nation.  Non-conference opponents for the Yellowjackets included Illinois-Chicago, an NCAA Division I opponent; NCAA Regional participants Eastern Connecticut State and Hamline University; MIAC co-champion Macalester College, and Buena Vista University, a qualifier for the Division III College World Series.

Morgan has coached four athletes who have earned First Team All-WIAC honors, a number of WIAC Honorable Mention players and two All-Midwest NCAA Regional performers.  Pitcher T.J. Wink signed a professional contract in 2011 and spent the summer with the Pittsfield Colonials of the CANAM League.

Prior to UW-Superior, Morgan spent nine seasons as an assistant coach and recruiting coordinator at the College of St. Scholastica.  There, he helped build the Saints into a perennial Division III power that was consistently ranked among the top teams in NCAA Division III, all the while building his own reputation as one of the top young assistant coaches in the nation.   During this time Morgan also gained head coaching experience, leading the Duluth Lakeview American Legion team for eight years.  With Duluth Lakeview, Morgan’s team reached the state American Legion tournament four times and developed into one of the elite programs in the state of Minnesota.

As a player, Morgan enjoyed a solid career as a middle infielder at St. Scholastica.  He graduated from there in 1996 with a bachelor’s degree in behavioral arts and sciences.  Morgan is currently completing work on his thesis for his master’s degree in management.

In addition to coaching, Morgan serves as an admissions counselor at UW-Superior. 

Morgan resides in Duluth, Minn. with his wife Jessica.  They have two children – Isaac (5) and Piper (2).
