Elliot Glynn

Elliot Glynn begins his sixth season as an assistant coach with the Hawks in 2018-19. Glynn, who also assists with recruiting, oversees Hartford's pitching staff and has helped the Hawks break a handful of records during his time with the team.

In 2018, the Hawks' pitching staff had a stellar season, striking out the most batters in program history (405). The group also pitched the most innings (476.2) and had the fourth lowest ERA in program history. Highlighting the season was freshman Nicholas Dombkowski who became the first player in America East history to be named conference Rookie and Pitcher of the Year. Glynn also saw right-handed pitcher Seth Pinkerton drafter in the 20th round by the Minnesota Twins.

In 2017, Glynn’s pitchers combined to rack up the third-most strikeouts in a single season in Hartford history, with 324. While setting the program record for wins (37) in 2016, the 2016 Hawks also ranked second-all time in team ERA (4.33), one spot ahead of the 2015 staff (4.36). Under Glynn's supervision, Hartford's pitchers have also cracked the program's all-time top five in innings pitched, runs allowed, strikeouts, shutouts, saves and batting average against.

With Glynn on staff, former Hartford pitcher Kyle Gauthier was a two-time All-America East Second Team selection (2015, 2016) and a six-time America East Pitcher of the Week.

Glynn, who signed with the Milwaukee Brewers in 2011, played collegiately at the University of Connecticut, where he was a two-time captain for the Huskies. In 2011 he helped lead the squad to the NCAA Super Regionals and, one year prior to that, Glynn helped the Huskies to a school-record 48 wins.

He still ranks sixth in Huskies history in all-time innings pitched, third in games started and among the top 20 in wins and strikeouts.

As a freshman designated hitter, Glynn was named All-New England and in 2010 received Second Team All-Big East and All-New England distinction as a pitcher. He also played two seasons in the Cape Cod Collegiate Baseball League where he was selected to play in the 2009 All-Star game at Fenway Park.

A Long Beach, Calif., native, Glynn was drafted three times before signing with the Brewers. He spent two seasons in the Brewers' farm system before playing one year in Germany.

Glynn came to Hartford from Siena College where he was an assistant coach with the Saints. He helped guide Siena to the 2014 MAAC Championship and a win against Dallas Baptist in the Fort Worth Regional of the NCAA Tournament.
