Akron baseball is looking for a new baseball coach after deciding against renewing the contract of Chris Sabo.
The former Reds third baseman was hired in 2018 as the first coach for the Zips after the team had been eliminated in 2015.
Sabo and his staff built a program from scratch, but the team went 31-89 during his tenure, so the Zips decided against renewing Sabo's contract. The university remains committed to baseball as a team sport, director of athletics Charles Guthrie said, and a national search for Sabo's replacement will be conducted later this summer.
