Vanderbilt head coach Tim Corbin was named Friday as the National Coach of the Year by Collegiate Baseball and the National Baseball Coaches Association. Corbin led the Commodores to their second national championship in six years earlier this week. Vanderbilt went 59-12, with the 59 wins the most by an SEC team in a single season.
The Commodores became the first school to reach the College World Series finals three times since the event moved to TD Ameritrade Park in 2011 and the first to win multiple titles at the ballpark.
