Daulton Mosbarger joined the Urbana baseball coaching staff in August 2017. He will serve as the program's new pitching coach, while assisting in recruiting, camps, fundraising and community service efforts.

Mosbarger, who is a former prep star at nearby Bellefontaine High School, recently completed a collegiate playing career at the University of Akron and The Ohio State University.

Mosbarger spent three seasons playing at Akron before the baseball program was terminated in 2015. He started 101 games over the course of his career as a two-way player at outfield and pitcher. He hit for a .247 average at the plate with four home runs, 24 doubles, and four triples, while recording 31.2 combined innings with a 1-0 record on the mound for the Zips.

Mosbarger then transferred to OSU for his final year of eligibility in 2015-16. He made 14 appearances in the field, including eight starts for a Buckeye squad that went 44-20-1 captured the 2016 Big 10 Tournament title. OSU went to the Louisville Regional that year, where Mosbarger went 2 for 3 with three RBI and home run against the second-ranked host Cardinals.

He also made an impact on the bump for OSU, registering 32.2 innings and a 2-0 record in five starts.

During his prep years at Bellefontaine, Mosbarger earned first team All-Ohio and Area Player of the Year as a junior and senior. He also racked up three first team All-Central Buckeye Conference awards and first team All-Miami Valley honors.

He was tabbed a top-50 prospect in Ohio by Prep Baseball Report, after hitting for a school-record .456 for his career and recorded 16 wins on the mound with 204 career strikeouts. He set the school record with eight triples as a sophomore and set career records with 29 doubles and 114 runs.
