ABOUT COACH JORDAN TORRES
Growing up in Brooklyn, New York, Jordan developed a passion for baseball at an early age while being surrounded by the game in professional clubhouses throughout his childhood. A standout player in New York City, he earned NYC All-City honors during his senior year of high school before continuing his academic and athletic career at University of Maryland Eastern Shore, where he majored in Kinesiology.
Jordan’s collegiate playing career was unfortunately cut short due to a torn UCL that resulted in multiple elbow surgeries. Following his playing career, he transitioned into coaching and player development, bringing both firsthand playing experience and a strong understanding of movement, performance, and athlete development to his coaching style.
He has spent multiple years coaching at Monroe University in New York while also working extensively in youth baseball development for more than four years. His coaching background ranges from youth instruction to collegiate player development, with an emphasis on building strong fundamentals, developing athletic movements, and helping players maximize their potential both on and off the field.
Additionally, Jordan holds multiple industry-recognized certifications in player development and performance training. He is certified through Driveline Baseball in the Foundations of Hitting, Pitching, and Strength Training, as well as certified in both Rapsodo Hitting and Pitching. He also holds USA Baseball A, B, and C coaching certifications. These credentials reflect his commitment to continuing education, data-driven player development, and providing athletes with modern, evidence-based training methods.
