Kane Keith is in his fourth season as an assistant baseball coach at North Georgia, coming to Dahlonega after a three-year stint at Georgia College.
During his time at UNG, Keith has helped the program earn a winning record in each of the first three seasons of his time in Dahlonega.
Keith spent three seasons on the coaching staff for GC Baseball, primarily working with the pitchers. Keith made an impact with the pitching staff, as 2020 was shaping up to be one of the top seasons on the mound in Bobcat history. GC went 13-2 in the virus-shortened effort, boasting a 3.84 ERA, the best team average since 2007. He was also working closely with the pitchers for the stellar 2018 season for Charlie Hecht, who dealt his way to All-America, Peach Belt Conference Pitcher of the Year and Region Pitcher of the Year honors.
A Bobcat alum as a pitcher himself, Keith was a two-time PBC Scholar-Athlete, going 5-0 with a 4.50 ERA in his senior season. The lefty tossed a seven-inning gem in the 2017 PBC Championship game, a 6-5 win over UNC Pembroke. During Keith’s five seasons with the Bobcat Baseball program, GC won the PBC Regular-Season title once, and the PBC Tournament two times.
The LaGrange, Georgia, native is a 2017 graduate of Georgia College & State University with a Bachelor of Science in Exercise Science. He also holds a Master of Education in Psychology with an emphasis in Positive Coaching from the University of Missouri. He and his wife, Elizabeth, reside in Dawsonville, GA.
