Alex Ferguson Named Head Baseball Coach at Principia
ELSAH, Ill. - Principia College Athletic Director Lee Ellis
announced today that Alex Ferguson will be the Gold and
Blue’s new head baseball coach. Ferguson is a Principia alum
and brings a wealth of experience to his post.
Ferguson (US 98, C03) most recently has been head baseball coach at
Presentation College in Aberdeen, South Dakota, for the past four
seasons. His teams over the last two years have finished in the top
three of the UMAC Conference. Ferguson holds a master’s in

with the Tom Urquhart Baseball School, Northern State, the Aberdeen

Ferguson played baseball for former coach Bill Marston at the
Principia School, and current School head coach, Larry Frank while

energy, experience and a work ethic I think our student-athletes
will appreciate and hopefully emulate.”
