Steve Trimper is an American college baseball coach who is currently the head coach for the Stetson Hatters baseball team out of the Atlantic Sun Conference. Previously, he served as the head coach at Maine from 2006 to 2016 and Manhattan from 1999 to 2005. An alumnus of Eastern Connecticut State University, Trimper played baseball there from 1990 to 1992 and was a member of the Warriors' 1990 Division III national championship team.
After he graduated from Eastern Connecticut in 1992, Trimper worked for two years as the associate head coach at Division III Wentworth. His first Division I position came at Vermont, where he served as an assistant under head coach Bill Currier from 1995 to 1998. He also earned his master's degree in administration from the university in 1997.
During the summers of 1996 and 1997, Trimper was the head coach of the Eastern Tides of the New England Collegiate Baseball League.
Trimper replaced Gary Puccio as the head coach at Manhattan prior to the start of the 1999 season. In his seven years as head coach (1999–2005), the Jaspers went 172–174–2.
Manhattan finished with sub-.500 records in Trimper's first three seasons. In 2002, his fourth, the team went 32–19; it was the school's first 30-win season and first winning season since 1971. Trimper was named the 2002 MAAC Coach of the Year. In 2003, the Jaspers finished with a .500 record (26–26), but went 15–10 in the MAAC to qualify for their first postseason appearance under Trimper. This berth was the first of three consecutive MAAC Tournaments for Manhattan; the team's best showing was a runner-up finish in 2004.
