ANN ARBOR, Mich. — University of Michigan baseball head coach Tracy Smith announced Friday (July 11) the hiring of Andrew Stone as the program’s new assistant coach.
Stone joins U-M from Michigan State after four seasons with the Spartans — two years as a volunteer assistant and two as an assistant coach. He spent the 2024 and 2025 seasons coaching the MSU infielders and hitters, as well as serving as the team’s first base coach. Stone helped mentor Jack Frank to first-team All-Big Ten honors in 2024 and Ryan McKay to second team All-Big Ten in 2025.
Before coaching at MSU, Stone spent two years at Kalamazoo College as an assistant coach and recruiting coordinator. He helped the Hornets to their second-highest win total in program history and five school records in 2021 — including runs and home runs. Kalamazoo also posted the second-best marks in school history in hits and batting average.
Stone was a five-year player and three-year starter for Western Michigan, playing in 155 career games. He finished with a career average of .304 and a .402 on-base percentage. He helped the Broncos with the 2016 MAC Tournament title and an NCAA berth for the first time since 1989.
Stone graduated as a three-time Academic All-MAC selection with a bachelor’s degree and master’s degree in sport management from Western Michigan in 2018 and 2019, respectively.
