SOFTBALL COACHES

Head Coach: John Dumaw

John Dumaw, who has been involved in fastpitch softball for more than 35 years, completed his 11th season as The College at Brockport’s softball coach in 2009. In his first 11 years at Brockport, his teams have compiled a 253-160-1 record for a .612 winning percentage.
      The Golden Eagles under Dumaw have won at least 20 games in each of the last five seasons and 10 of the last 11 campaigns. Brockport won 28 games in 2009, which is tied for second on the all-time list for wins in a season. Dumaw’s 2001 squad set the record at 30 wins in a season and the veteran head coach has posted 28-win seasons three times (2002, 2007 and 2009).
      Dumaw was voted the SUNYAC Coach of the Year for the first time in his career in 2009. The Golden Eagles suffered just nine regular-season losses and only 13 on the year. Five of the losses were by a single run and five more were by a two-run margin.
      Since 2000, 26 players have been named to the All-SUNYAC team with a single-season high of six selections following the 2009 season. Two players have been named the SUNYAC Player of the Year since 2000 and in 2009, both Rachel Maxon and Stephanie Geer garnered academic awards. Maxon earned CoSIDA Academic All-America (District I)status and Geer was selected as the SUNY Chancellor’s Award of Excellence winner for softball as the highest grade point average among All-SUNYAC selections.

Dumaw’s lifetime sanctioned stats include 122 no-hitters and 24 perfect games. His career culminated with his election to the New York State Amateur Softball Association (NYSASA) Hall of Fame (1990) and the USISA National Hall of Fame (1993). His extensive coaching career includes stints at Gates-Chili High School and Rochester Institute of Technology.
      Dumaw served one season (1998) as assistant at Brockport before being appointed head coach.
