The number ties the 2007 and 2010 Coastal Carolina squads for the Big South Conference record for players picked in a single draft. The impressive strides made by the program have not gone unnoticed. During November of 2010, Rivals. com cited Liberty as one of college baseball’s top 10 rising programs. Toman was named the sixth head coach in the history of the Liberty Baseball program in June 2007, after 11 seasons as the senior member of Ray Tanner’s coaching staff at South Carolina. Toman worked a total of 18 years alongside Tanner, dating back to the 1990 season at N.C. State. During his time at South Carolina, Toman served as recruiting coordinator and coached the catchers. Known as one of the top recruiters in college baseball, the 22-year college coaching veteran was named the 2002 Baseball America/American Baseball Coaches Association Assistant Coach of the Year. Before joining the Gamecock staff in 1996, Toman served under Tanner for seven years at N.C. State. A native of Monroeville, Pa., Toman is married to the former Ashley McLaughlin of Florence, S.C., and lives in Forest, Va. They have three children - Caroline (14), Charlie Mac (11), and Tucker (8).
