Jackson Rockabillys Welcome Their 2024 Field Manager

JACKSON, Tennessee - Today the Jackson Rockabillys announce their new 2024 Field Manager, Sam Quinn-Loeb. Quinn-Loeb is currently the Head Baseball Coach at Plattsburgh State University of New York.

In 2023, Quinn-Loeb guided the Cardinals to a 15-20 season, finishing with an identical record in conference play as the year before (7-11) but missed out on the playoffs. In his first year as head coach, Quinn-Loeb led the Cardinals to one of their best season finishing with a 21-19 record, the team's best since the 2012 season. While serving on former head coach Kris Doorey's staff, Quinn-Loeb helped the Cardinals come within at least a game of qualifying for the State University of New York Athletic Conference (SUNYAC) Tournament in each of the past two seasons. In 2021, the Cardinals ranked among the top four in the SUNYAC in batting average and on-base percentage.

Prior to arriving at Plattsburgh State, Quinn-Loeb completed stints as an assistant coach at Salve Regina University in 2018, Cazenovia College from 2014-17 and D'Youville College from 2012-14.
 
In addition to his collegiate baseball coaching experience, Quinn-Loeb has served as head coach of the Plattsburgh Thunderbirds (Empire Baseball League, 2021), the Geneva Snowcats (Interstate Collegiate Baseball League, 2020), the Newark Pilots (Perfect Games Collegiate Baseball League, 2019), the Wellsville Nitros (New York Collegiate Baseball League, 2017) and the Geneva Red Wings (Perfect Game Collegiate Baseball League, 2016). He also served as a player-coach for the Road City Explorers of the Empire Pro League in 2015.
 
Quinn-Loeb has also served as an instructor for Syracuse Baseball Prep (2015-17), and as a head coach and instructor for Academy Stars Baseball (2012-14).
 
The Hamburg, N.Y., native played collegiate baseball at the SUNY Polytechnic Institute for three years.   Quinn-Loeb graduated from SUNYIT in 2012 with a Bachelor of Science in business administration and a minor in accounting. He received his Master of Science in fitness and wellness leadership at SUNY Plattsburgh in 2022.

 " We are excited to be able to bring into the fold a coach with many years of summer collegiate Field Manager experience", notes Rockabillys President/GM Dennis Bastien,"his wealth of experience and background, we feel, makes him an ideal fit here as we enter our second season."

"I am looking forward to coaching and managing in Jackson this summer.  The Prospect League is one of the best summer collegiate leagues in the country. After multiple conversations about Jackson, everything sounds first class including the stadium, which is a great place to play and watch a baseball game. I cannot wait to get started with the Rockabillys", said Quinn-Loeb.

Previously named 2024 Field Manager, JT Scara, has accepted a position in professional independent league baseball.
