As the Seton Hill baseball team made its way through the NCAA Division II Atlantic Regional and NCAA championships earlier this summer, Parker Lynn watched with interest.
During his time as a player and student assistant coach at Cal U, Lynn often competed against and admired the Griffins, a fellow foe in the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference. 

So when he saw SHU advance to play at Coleman Field in Cary, N.C., he wasn’t the least bit shocked they were there. 

“From my time competing against SHU for four years at Cal U, their competitive and successful caliber of play was an attribute that did not go unnoticed,” said Lynn, a Belle Vernon Area and Cal U graduate. “The incredible run they made this past year is a direct result of hard work and determination that I cannot wait to be a part of.”  

After watching from afar, Lynn will now get an even closer look at the Griffins beginning in the fall. He announced Saturday that he will join Seton Hill’s coaching staff as an assistant coach under head coach Marc Marizzaldi. 

“I am extremely excited to get the opportunity to coach in one of the top Division II conferences in the country again,” Lynn said. “The respect level I have for Seton Hill University, the baseball program and Coach Marizzaldi is through the roof, and I am very thankful for the opportunity to join their staff. This stepping stone will only continue to propel my coaching career.”
