New Coaches Bolster Bellarmine Baseball
Bellarmine University announced this week that three experienced coaches have joined the baseball program, a move aimed at elevating the team’s competitive edge and deepening its recruiting pipeline.
Coaching Resumes and Achievements
Vince Tornincasa arrives after a standout tenure at Indiana University Southeast, where he led the program to a River States Conference regular‑season and tournament championship, an NAIA Opening Round title and a program‑record No. 5 national ranking. He will serve as recruiting coordinator and assistant coach, bringing a proven track record of turning modest rosters into championship contenders.
Will Kempf, who previously worked as a hitting coach and assistant at the University of Louisville and Martinsville, joins as director of player development and operations. His background includes helping the Martinsville Mustangs capture the 2025 Coastal Plain League regular‑season championship and contributing to league‑leading offensive metrics through data‑driven strategies.
Victor Alvarez, a bilingual coach with experience at Campbellsville University and the Dubois County Bombers, comes on as a graduate assistant. He helped Campbellsville’s junior varsity team win a fall 2025 tournament championship and mentored several Mid‑South Conference Gold Glove outfielders, adding both language skills and defensive expertise to the staff.
The new coaching additions underscore Bellarmine’s commitment to integrating recruiting acumen, analytical development and operational efficiency. Athletic leadership expressed confidence that the trio will help the Cardinals compete at higher levels in the coming season, building on the program’s recent momentum.
