St. Anne-Pacelli Catholic School is pleased to announce the appointment of Cobie Vance as the next Head Baseball Coach of its Vikings Baseball program.

A Fayetteville, N.C. native and former professional baseball player, Vance brings an impressive combination of playing experience, leadership, player development, and a passion for mentoring young athletes.

Vance is a graduate of the University of Alabama, where he earned a bachelor’s degree in Human Environmental Sciences and was a three-year starter for the Crimson Tide baseball program. From 2016-2018, he started all 168 games of his collegiate career and was recognized for his commitment to service as a member of the 2018 SEC Baseball Community Service Team.

Following his collegiate career, Vance was selected in the 18th round of the 2018 Major League Baseball Draft by the Oakland Athletics. During a six-year professional career in the Oakland Athletics and Miami Marlins organizations, he advanced to the Triple-A level before retiring in 2024. One of the highlights of his professional career came in 2022 when he hit the go-ahead grand slam in the Southern League (AA) Championship Game, helping lead the Pensacola Blue Wahoos to the first outright championship in franchise history.

Since coming to Columbus, Vance has served as Director of Baseball Operations for Across the Diamond, where he has focused on player development and helping young athletes reach their full potential both on and off the field.

"I am incredibly honored and excited to join St. Anne-Pacelli Catholic School as the next Head Baseball Coach. Pacelli has a strong tradition of excellence, and I look forward to building relationships with our student-athletes and helping them grow as players, students, and young men of character,” Vance said.

"We are excited to welcome Cobie Vance to the Viking family," said Athletic Director Calvin Thomas. "His experience at the collegiate and professional levels, combined with his passion for developing young people, makes him an outstanding fit to lead our baseball program."
