Mike Victory is entering his fifth season at the helm of the Brevard College Baseball program in 2023-24.
Victory joined Brevard College after three seasons as the Assistant Coach at NCAA Division III Allegheny College in Meadville, Pennsylvania to go along with extensive experience coaching for the USA Baseball Academy.
In 2019, Victory helped guide Allegheny to a 22-17 overall record and a 10-7 record in the North Coast Athletic Conference. As Pitching Coach, he led the Allegheny pitching staff including 2019 North Coast Athletic Conference Pitcher of the Year Sean Kealey. He also served as Allegheny's Recruiting Coordinator and Head JV Baseball Coach.
Prior to his tenure at Allegheny, Victory spent four seasons as an Assistant Coach at St. Mary's College (Maryland), serving as the team's Pitching Coach and Recruiting Coordinator. As Pitching Coach, he helped the Seahawks lower their team earned run average in his first season and mentored Capital Athletic Conference standout, Sam Beatty. In addition to his baseball duties, Victory served as an Assistant Coach for the St. Mary's women's basketball program for seven seasons.
As a student-athlete, Victory was a pitcher for St. Mary's College from 2009-12. A two-year captain and a four-time CAC All-Academic Team selection, he claimed the team's Rookie of the Year award in 2009. In his senior season, Victory finished in the top-25 nationally in the fewest walks per inning (0.125) while also receiving the Athletic Director's Award for his overall performance as a student-athlete on and off the field.
Victory is a native of Westford, Massachusetts where he attended Westford Academy. He graduated from St. Mary's College (Md.) in 2012 with a Bachelor of Arts in History. He later earned a Master's degree in Teaching in 2013.
