UVA Baseball | Casey Scott named director of baseball operations

UVA Baseball coach Chris Pollard has named a new director of operations, Casey Scott, who has a run of experience as a high school, college and summer-league coach.

Most recently, Scott was the head baseball coach at Bishop Verot Catholic High School in Fort Myers, Fla., where his teams were 114-42 in his five seasons, and appeared in back-to-back FHSAA 3A state semifinals during the 2024 and 2025 campaigns.

In 2025, Bishop Verot posted a school-high 32 wins and was ranked ninth nationally.

“We are thrilled to have Casey Scott joining our staff as director of operations here at the University of Virginia,” Pollard said. “Through his experiences as an assistant and head coach at the college level, Casey has built a tremendous skill set from both a baseball and organizational standpoint. “

Scott also served as the manager of the USA Baseball 15U national team in the 2025 WBSC U-15 Pan American Championship this summer, after serving as the pitching coach for the 15U team squad in 2023 and 2024.

Scott started his coaching career in 2009 at SUNY-Brockport after posting a 9-0 record on the mound for the Golden Eagles in two seasons as a player.

In 2012, Scott was named head coach of the Syracuse Jr. Chiefs of the New York Collegiate Baseball League and led his team to a title en route to being named the league’s Coach of the Year.

Scott was an assistant coach at SUNY Cortland from 2010-2013 before landing a head coaching gig with Ave Maria University in 2015, after being an assistant for the Gyrenes in 2014.

After a three-year stint at Ave Maria, Scott returned to SUNY Cortland as an associate head coach for the 2018 campaign.

“I’m incredibly honored and thankful to accept the position of director of operations for University of Virginia Baseball,” Scott said. “I’m grateful for the opportunity to contribute to a tradition of excellence. I am also excited to be a part of such a historic program and for what the future holds. Go ‘Hoos!”
