FARGO, N.D.--Bowling Green assistant Tod Brown has been named head baseball coach at North Dakota State. That announcement came today from NDSU athletic director Gene Taylor.

"We’re extremely excited Tod has accepted this opportunity," Taylor said. "We had outstanding candidates to choose from and Tod rose to the top. We were pleased with the resumes we received, and we were very impressed with those we spoke to personally."

Brown, the pitching coach and recruiting coordinator for the past eight seasons at Bowling Green, replaces Mitch McLeod, who resigned in May. He will inherit a team that was 16-31 as a Division I independent last year and will begin play in The Summit League next spring.


"We look forward to Tod taking our baseball team and preparing them to be potential Summit League champions," Taylor said.

At Bowling Green, Brown has been a part of two division titles and a regular-season championship in the Mid-American Conference. He has coached two MAC Player of the Year award-winners and eight professional draft picks.
