South Orange, N.J. — Seton Hall baseball great Ryan Ramiz, a two-time All-BIG EAST selection and an MLB Draft choice of the Seattle Mariners in 2018, has returned to his alma mater as the volunteer assistant coach.
Ramiz steadily progressed over his four-year career, collecting All-BIG EAST Second Team accolades as a junior and All-BIG EAST First Team honors as a senior. The Freehold, N.J., native hit a team-best .316 with 13 doubles and 32 RBI as a senior for a Seton Hall squad that advanced to the BIG EAST Championship game. In conference play, Ramiz led the BIG EAST with a .429 batting average (24-for-56) and a .528 on-base percentage.
A strong junior season set the stage for Ramiz's standout senior campaign. After appearing in all 58 games as a sophomore in 2016, Ramiz finished his third season in South Orange ranked in the top 10 in the BIG EAST in stolen bases (t-third, 17), triples (fourth, 4) and walks (seventh, 31). He made only two errors in 95 outfield chances and he led the team 15 multi-hit games.
Ramiz was selected by the Seattle Mariners in the 23rd round of the 2018 MLB Draft. He reached A ball in the Mariners' organization where he hit seven home runs and drove in 42 runs in 119 games played for the West Viriginia Power in the South Atlantic League. He will now join two fellow Seton Hall alumni on the Pirates' coaching staff in head coach Rob Sheppard and associate head coach Giuseppe Papaccio.
