Brian Anderson Position: Assistant Coach Experience: Second Season Alma Mater: George Mason

Brian Anderson joins the Marist College baseball staff for his second season. With responsibilities to all aspects of the program, Anderson will coach the catchers, serve as the primary hitting coach on a daily basis, and as the bench coach on game day. He will also work as an assistant recruiting coordinator and as one of the camp directors for the program's various camps.

Anderson worked with head coach Joe Raccuia last season, as a volunteer assistant at George Mason University. In that year, he worked with the catchers, coached first base, and was the assistant hitting coach.

Anderson played his collegiate baseball at Mason, serving as the starting catcher for all four of his seasons, 1998-2002. He ranks among Mason's top-10 in eight categories, including games played, seventh with 194, and he ranks 10th, with 175 games started. He also ranks among George Mason's all-time bests in hits, at-bats, homeruns, triples, total bases, and RBI.

"The first call I made after being hired at Marist was to Brian, to get him up here and on my staff. His knowledge of catching and his ability to work with hitters is unmatched. He is as good as a young baseball guy as you are going to get." Joe Raccuia

A native of Chesapeake, VA, Anderson currently resides in Poughkeepsie, NY.
