SOUTH BEND, Ind. – Head coach Shawn Stiffler has announced the addition of Seth Cutler-Voltz to his coaching staff. Cutler-Voltz joins the Fighting Irish after spending the 2022 season under Stiffler at VCU, and previously worked as an assistant coach at Wofford College.
Cutler-Voltz led the Rams to the 2022 Atlantic 10 Championship, winning 17-consecutive games and earning the three-seed at the NCAA Chapel Hill Regional where they notched wins over North Carolina and Georgia. VCU finished the 2022 campaign with a 42-20 record, and ranked in the top 20 in Division I in ERA (3.91 – 9th), WHIP (1.29 – 12th) and walks allowed per nine innings (3.12 – 10th).
Cutler-Voltz was an assistant coach with the Wofford Terriers from 2017-20. He helped the Terriers win the first Southern Conference Regular Season Championship in program history in 2021, after a 36-21 regular season and a 21-9 SoCon record. The 492 strikeouts in the 2021 campaign is the second-most in SoCon history and the third-most in program history (Wofford joined the Southern Conference in 1997).
Prior to Wofford, he was on the coaching staff at UT Martin from 2015-16. While there, the Skyhawks improved significantly during those two seasons. The 2016 season saw the Skyhawks win the most games in a season since 2011, and struck out a program-record 369 hitters.
After graduating from VCU in 2012, where he was a four-year letterwinner under Stiffler, he began his coaching career as the Rams’ volunteer coach. In his playing career, Cutler-Voltz was a workhorse on the mound from 2009-12. He made 73 career appearances, started 47 games and threw eight complete games, all are top-10 in VCU program history. He is second in Ram Baseball history with 338.1 innings pitched in his career.
