Kevin Kime  

Kevin Kime is in his third season with Mount Aloysius College, after taking over the program in September 2006. Over the past two seasons, the Mounties have re-written the record books setting single season records for overall wins and conference wins in back-to-back years.

Kime's inaugural season marked the first time in program history that the Mounties earned player of the week honors in the AMCC, while also adding four players to the AMCC all-conference team.

In 2008, the Mounties recorded a 20-win season, and finished sixth in the AMCC.  Brandon Nolan became the college's first player ever to be named to the Mid-Atlantic all-region team that year.

The Mounties held an NCAA Division III national ranking of 23rd in the country in stolen bases per game in 2008.

A native of Johnstown, PA and graduate of Bishop McCort High School, Kime returned to the area after serving as an assistant coach at both LaGrange College and Walsh University.

During his time at LaGrange College, Kime had the privilege of coaching 16 Great South all-conference players, while also helping to orchestrate a GSAC regular season title and a GSAC Conference Tournament championship.

Prior to LaGrange College, Kime was an assistant coach at his alma matter, Walsh University. He was a four-year letter winner at Walsh, earning all-conference honors and helping the Cavaliers earn an American Mideast Championship in 2000.

In addition to his playing career at Walsh, Kime was an outfielder on the Johnstown Galliker's AAABA team that advanced to the 2001 championship game of the national AAABA tournament.     
                                                                 
While serving as an assistant at Walsh University and LaGrange College, Kime spent his summers coaching in both the Johnstown AAABA League and The Great Lakes Collegiate Summer League.

Funded by Major League Baseball, the Great Lakes Collegiate Summer League is recognized as one of the top collegiate summer leagues in the United States and serves as a gateway to professional baseball for many amateur players. In 2006, Kime helped the Granville Settlers, first-year franchise, to a fourth place finish in the GLSCL tournament.

Kime holds a bachelor's degree in education from Walsh University and a master's degree in education from LaGrange College. He is a member of the American Baseball Coaches Association. He currently resides in Cresson, PA and also serves as the college's Student Life Coordinator.
