Adam Sheibley is in his third season as Shippensburg University’s primary assistant baseball coach in 2015. Sheibley fills multiple integral roles with the Raiders, serving as the team’s recruiting coordinator in addition to working as the team’s primary instructor for hitting, base-running and infield work.
With the Raiders, Sheibley has been a part of teams that have won at least 29 games each year. The 2013 team won the Atlantic Region Championship despite a 2013 schedule that was deemed the most difficult in the Atlantic Region.
Sheibley, a Landisburg native, arrived at Shippensburg after spending two seasons as an assistant coach at his alma mater, Elizabethtown College. E-Town achieved 39 victories with Sheibley on staff.
With the Blue Jays, Sheibley was active in player development, scouting and recruiting while focusing his instruction toward hitting, fielding and base-running. He also developed off-season conditioning programs for each player.
His additional coaching experience includes work with instructional camps and showcases at Bucknell, Virginia, Delaware and Shippensburg and for companies such as Baseball Factory and Elite Baseball.
As a player, Sheibley (2006-09) finished his career as Elizabethtown’s career leader in runs scored (162), triples (23), stolen bases (95), games played (158) and at-bats (568). He also ranks second in Elizabethtown’s record books for career RBIs (115) and hits (178).
Sheibley led the country in stolen bases (51) and stolen bases per game (1.16) during his senior season in 2009. As a freshman in 2006, a season in which Matt Jones was his head coach, Sheibley hit 12 triples in 43 games – which tied for sixth-most in a season in NCAA history.
