STEPHENVILLE - Tarleton athletics director Lonn Reisman has announced the hiring of Bryan Conger as the head coach of the Tarleton baseball program.

“Bryan brings in a solid vision of where he wants the Tarleton baseball program to be in the future,” Reisman said. “He brings in five years of NCAA Division I experience from Utah and that has helped him develop some great contacts across the country. I was impressed with his enthusiasm, his energy and his knowledge of the game of baseball. I think our players will be very impressed with Coach Conger and I have every confidence he will take our baseball program to where it needs to be in order to compete for both Lone Star Conference championships and NCAA playoff berths.

”A former three-year letterwinner as a Texan baseball player, Conger returns to Tarleton following stints at Lamar Community College, Cloud County Community College and the University of Utah.

“This is a great move for myself and my family,” Conger said. “We are all excited to move back home. It is a great opportunity professionally and a great challenge to turn the program back to where it can and should be. I’m looking forward to the opportunity and I cannot wait to get started.”
