John McCormack completed his ninth season as head baseball coach at Florida Atlantic in 2017 after serving 11 years as associate head coach and seven years as an assistant coach. McCormack picked up a milestone victory in 2017, when after an 8-2 win vs. Rice to clinch the series on April 2, he moved his career mark to 300-190-1. He will go into the 2018 season with an overall record of 316-203-1.
