In his first season as a head coach, the Wabash posted its biggest win of the 2007 campaign with a 3-2 victory at number-one ranked and undefeated Wooster. The Little Giants went on to post the most triples in a season in Wabash history (15), while Jake Thomas set the single season hits record (59) and Matt Dodaro set the single season total bases record (98). Last year Stevens' Wabash team posted 20 wins — the first time a Little Giant squad reached the 20-win mark since 2003.

Stevens served three seasons as an assistant baseball coach at Wabash, working primarily as the pitching coach and recruiting coordinator for the team. He spent the summers of 2004 and 2005 as pitching coach for the Stark County Terriers of the prestigious Great Lakes Collegiate Summer Baseball League.

Prior to coming to Wabash, Stevens spent the past two years as the head baseball coach at Mona Shores High School in Muskegon, Michigan -- the youngest head coach in school history. His teams produced eight All-Area, one All-District, four Academic All-District, and two Academic All-State players. Stevens also established the first Mona Shores Alumni Baseball Game and the first spring trip in school history. He also created the first baseball booster club at the school, which generated over $25,000 in a one-year period.

Stevens was a four-year letterman at North Central College in Naperville, Illinois, where he graduated cum laude with a bachelor of arts in 2000. He played baseball for former North Central College and current Northern Illinois University head coach Ed Mathey.

Stevens has also coached and worked with several Michigan and Illinois area youth organizations, including the Lakeshore Elite (MI) 18 traveling team, the Roosevelt Park (MI) Connie Mack 16-17 team, and the AABC Traveling Reds (IL) 18 team. He has served as an instructor at the Northern Illinois University baseball camps, Jack Perconte's Sports Academy, Lakeshore Elite Training Facility, Mona Shores baseball camps, Cardinal Catching Clinic, and the North Central College baseball camps.

Stevens is pursuing a masters degree in business administration. He and his wife, Megan, reside in Lafayette with their daughter, Isla Elaine.
