In his sixth season with the Crusaders, and 30th season coaching overall, Associate Head Coach Stu Rose will again work with the MU infielders and serve as hitting coach for the 2010 campaign.
Rose will also reprise his role as third base coach, running the offense. He is also a key evaluator of talent in the recruiting process.
Rose is no stranger to collegiate coaching having served most recently as an assistant coach at the University of Detroit under former MU assistant Chris Czarnik during the 2004 season.
Prior to his time with the Titans, Rose was the head coach at Henry Ford Community College in Dearborn, Mich., where he became one of the most respected junior college coaches in the area and in the country. Rose left HFCC as the most successful coach in school history, amassing 435 wins and eight league championships. Rose also led his team to a pair of state and regional titles and a National Championship runner-up finish in 1994. For his efforts that season, Rose was named the National Tournament Coach of the Year.
Rose joined HFCC after eight years as the head coach at Redford Union (Mich.) high school, where he posted 147 wins. Rose has coached more than 140 student-athletes who have either gone on to play baseball at four-year institutions, or professionally.
Heavily involved in amateur athletics, Rose has served as the league director for the Livonia Adray Collegiate Baseball League and the Redford and Livonia Connie Mack programs. He is credited with starting the first ever large scale fall baseball program in Michigan. Rose has coached summer baseball teams in the state for 26 years, amassing more than 900 total victories over that span. All tolled, Rose has tallied over 1, 500 career baseball wins as a head coach at all his stops.
In addition to his role at Madonna, Rose is the Director of Total Baseball - the winter home of the Crusaders - which is part of the Total Sports Complex in Wixom.
Rose has been married to his wife Jean for 30 years and the couple has three children: Erica, Joyce and John.
