About Tommy LaCongo

With a lifelong passion for baseball, I have dedicated my career to mastering the game and helping others achieve their athletic goals. My journey began in the Orchard Park Little League, where I first discovered my love for the sport. I continued to hone my skills at Orchard Park High School, earning the Maroon Key Award and recognition as an All-WNY player for my outstanding performance on the field.

I further developed my game at Monroe Community College, where I was honored as the Male Athlete of the Year in 2015, earned MVP honors in the Regional Championship, and was named to the All Decade Team by Pickinsplinters. My collegiate career also included two seasons at St. Bonaventure University, where I competed at the Division I level.

I’m proud to be a 2x NABF World Series Champion with the Buffalo Diesel – helping the team build on its legacy of 4 World Series Titles (15′, 17′, 22′, 24′). I was honored with Co-MVP of the 2022 NABF World Series.

My experience also extends to playing in the Puerto Rico Winter League and the California Winter League, where I gained invaluable experience against top talent from around the world. Additionally, I had the unique opportunity to train against the Kia Tigers of the Korean Baseball Organization during their 2020 Spring Training.

Transitioning from player to coach, I served as the hitting and catching coach for Erie Community College. The Erie Kats had a record of 77 wins and 32 losses , putting up nearly 1000 runs during my two seasons as hitting coach.
