Stockton University Athletics

Updated 8/20/19

Dave Lorber is in his second year as the head baseball coach at Stockton. The position is his first as a college head coach after 10 years of experience as an assistant coach at the college level. Lorber is Stockton’s first full-time head baseball coach.

Last season, Lorber led Stockton to its best start in school history as the Ospreys began with 10 straight wins before running into the tough NJAC schedule. Stockton finished with 13 victories under Lorber, more than doubling their win total from the previous year.

Lorber, a native of Freehold, N.J., spent the last six years as assistant coach and recruiting coordinator at George Washington University, where his responsibilities included working with the infielders, team defense and hitting in addition to coordinating the recruiting efforts for the NCAA Division I program. In 2015, he helped the Colonials set a school record with a .978 fielding percentage that was 20th in the nation.
 
George Washington qualified for the Atlantic-10 Tournament five times and surpassed the 30-win mark three times in Lorber’s six years on the staff. The string of playoff appearances began with a 2013 berth that ended a five-year drought for the program. Lorber recruited and coached seven players who became Major League Baseball draft picks as well as one All-American and 10 all-conference performers.
 
Lorber also possesses college coaching experience from one season at Division I Stony Brook, a year-and-a-half apiece at Division II Felician College and Division III Eastern University plus one season at Brookdale Community College. With Lorber on the staff, Stony Brook reached the College World Series in 2012 and Eastern set a school record with 21 wins in 2010.
 
Lorber played one season at Central Connecticut State after two years at Brookdale Community College. He earned his bachelor’s degree from Central Connecticut in 2008.
