2018 TEAM OUTLOOKThe 2018 Gators look to return to the Junior College (JUCO) World Series for the fourth straight season and 13th time under legendary Hall of Fame Head Coach Tom Arrington. Last season San Jac finished as the national runner up for the sixth time under Arrington.

The first home games of the season will be on Friday, Feb. 2 against Bossier Parish Community College in a doubleheader. In total, San Jac will play 18 home games this season at JR Harrison Field at Andy Pettitte Park.

San Jac will once again host the Tournament of Champions Feb. 9 – 11, with game sites at San Jac, University of Houston, Sam Houston State University and Lamar University. Following that annual tournament, San Jac will host Western Texas for two games Feb. 15 and 17 before hitting the road for five games.

Region XIV home games for the 2018 season include matchups against Wharton County Junior College (Saturday, March 30; Thursday, April 12), Galveston College (Thursday, March 8; Saturday, April 21), Blinn College (Saturday, March 17; Thursday, April 26), Laredo College (Friday – Saturday, April 6-7), and Alvin College (Thursday, March 22; Saturday, May 4). Additional home games include Navarro College (Monday, March 5), South Suburban College (Tuesday, March 13), Coastal Bend College (Tuesday, March 20), and McLennan College (Monday, March 26).

“It is going to be an exciting year, and we are looking forward to getting out on the field for the 2018 season,” said Arrington, who is entering his 17th year at the helm of the San Jacinto College baseball program. “With the overwhelming success we have had the past several years, people might find it hard to believe, but this upcoming year could be the best ever.”

Arrington has nine returners from a team that finished as the national runner up last season. Included in that lineup are Mario Moralez (Baytown / Goose Creek HS) and Herbert Iser (Kissimmee, Florida / Osceola HS), the top two returning hitters, as well as Sergio Macias (Laredo, Texas / John B. Alexander High School). Moralez hit .302 on the year in 58 games. He had 159 at bats, and posted 48 hits, 4 doubles, and nine homeruns. Iser saw action in 62 games, hitting .281. He had 52 hits with 11 doubles, 1 triple and seven homeruns. Macias played in 61 games with 188 at bats. He posted 47 hits, including 10 doubles, one triple and six home runs. He was also responsible for 35 RBI and scoring 40 runs, while stealing five bases.

Ten transfers will join Arrington’s team for 2018, including Jordan Myrow (Los Angeles, California / Notre Dame HS / UCLA), godson of LA Dodgers skipper Dave Roberts; and Jake (Weldon Spring, Missouri / Westminster Christian HS / Indiana University) and Luke Matheny (Weldon Spring, Missouri / Westminster Christian HS / Oklahoma State University), sons of St. Louis Cardinals manager Mike Matheny. San Jac will also welcome transfers Nick Neville (Fairfax, Virginia / Lake Braddock HS / University of Notre Dame), Andres Sosa (San Antonio, Texas / Reagan HS / University of Texas), and Trent Franson (Houston / Lutheran South HS / TCU).

A slew of freshman will join Arrington’s team this spring, including Alerick Soularie (Humble, Texas / Atascocita HS), Tyreice Silas (Houston / Cypress Falls HS), Matt Goodheart (Magnolia, Arkansas / Magnolia HS), and Rylan Kaufman (Friendswood / Friendswood HS).

“Jordan Myrow is a transfer outfielder from UCLA. He has tremendous arm in the outfield having been clocked at 99 mph. Jordan has raw power and can hit for a high average as well as being a plus runner and instinctive on the bases. He also happens to be the Godson of Los Angeles Dodgers Manager Dave Roberts.”

“DJ Stephens comes to us from Hawaii. He can defend at a high level and play any outfield position. He will need to get more physical in the weight room over the next two years. DJ has the ability to hit for a very good average but at this point is a defender first.”

“Alerick Soulaire has the complete package. He can flat out hit at the highest of levels. He can hit for power, high average and run the bases as well as anyone. He will play in the outfield and hit in the top third of any lineup. He is a University of Tennessee signee.”

“Tyriece Silas has the ability to play professional baseball for a very long time. He has tremendous eye-hand coordination, can bunt and run, drive gaps, defend all fields in the outfield and steal bases at will. He has a lot of room to grow physically and can put on 10 to 15 pounds of muscle weight. When he does that, he will have put it all together.”

“Trent Franson transferred to us from TCU. He has become a very good defender, and he has very good barrel control and feel for the strike zone. Trent has the ability to hit for both a high average and also power as he is very physical. He will play for Houston Baptist University next season.”

“Herbert Iser is one of the most genuine people ever to play in this program. On top of that, he is a heck of a player. His bat plays at any level. He can hit balls out of any yard in the country and will hit in the middle of our lineup. Behind the plate, he is a natural leader with a big-league arm and has developed into a solid receiver as well. Herbert is a Dallas Baptist University signee.”

“Mike Pascoe returns for his sophomore year after having a role out of the pen in 2017. This hard throwing pitcher can run it up into the mid 90s and shows a plus change up and very good breaking ball. The sky is the limit when he pitches and refrains from being a thrower. He will play at St. Johns University next year.”

“Sergio Macias returns as the team’s leader from 2017. He is everything a coach looks for in a player and a person. He shows up every day ready to take on the world. He will run through a brick wall for you and on top of that, he is easily one of our best hitters and fielders.”

“Blake Goins is finally healthy and we couldn’t be more excited! Blake has the ability to dominate games on the mound. He just needs to step foot back on the mound and get his feet wet. Mid 90s fastballs with run and plus off-speed.”

“Matt Goodheart was born to hit. He has an old school approach and somewhat funky stance. It works, and works as well as any on the team. His barrel is always in the zone for a very long time and he crushes baseballs. His father managed the Southern Arkansas University program for 32 years, and you can tell Matt comes from great lineage.”

“Devo, as he is affectionately known, is the leader amongst the staff. He can power his way through a lineup with low to mid-90s fastballs, and he can locate with a splitter that can keep hitters off balance and guessing. Devon will play at the University of Houston next season.”

“Reid Morgan transferred to us from Oklahoma State University. The kid is everything he was out of high school. He throws from a low 3/4 slot and spins a Frisbee slider that can be untouchable. Whatever role, starter or reliever, the Gators will rely heavily on Reid. He is a South Carolina University signee.”

“Jacob Cantleberry led the team in many categories as a freshman, including wins. The 13-1 All-American returns to lead a deep staff and he has increased his velocity. With more command will come a potential day two or three draft. Jacob is a left handed pitcher with a Buggs Bunny Change and developing slider. He will play next season at the University of Missouri.”

“Luke Matheny is another Oklahoma State University transfer. He has the ability to command the strike zone and should be in the mix for a starting role. Upper 80s to low 90 fastball plus command of the BB will keep hitters guessing.”

“Nick Neville transferred in from Notre Dame. A defensive shortstop is what we were expecting coming in. However, we got a defensive shortstop who can flat out hit, run and lead by example. He is a solid middle who will help us compete for a championship.”

“Chris Roberts has been a slow development project. This third year guy is now poised to pitch at a very high level and he still has room for growth. Everyone has been patiently waiting for the development, and it is everything we've been hoping for. He clocks 92-94 mph with an 82 slider and command.”

TOM ARRINGTONHead CoachTexas A&M University (1987)Overall: 742-298 (.718), 18th season

Leading the baseball program at San Jacinto College means more than performing a job for Tom Arrington. The way he sees it, he has an obligation to both the College and his players to help them continue their development and extend their playing career. So far, so good for Arrington, who took over the San Jacinto College program as head coach prior to the 2001 season. Since then, San Jacinto College has made 10 trips to the National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) JUCO World Series, including six appearances in the national title game, culminating as the national runner-up in 2003, 2004, 2010, 2012, 2016 and 2017. His 37 wins at the JUCO World Series is an all-time record, as is his 59 total games played at the prestigious national tournament.

Arrington can also add “Hall of Fame” to his signature, as the veteran coach will enter the NJCAA Baseball of Fame in 2018. “I am shocked and surprised. It hasn’t really sunk in yet,” he said. “As a coach, my success starts with the players. They are the ones playing the game. It is my responsibility to guide them and transition them along their path. I am very blessed and thankful to have this opportunity.”

Last season Arrington once again led his team to Grand Junction, Colorado, and wound up as the national runner-up. His squad finished the season 48-17 overall and was the Region XIV tournament champion. Five players – Sergio Macias, Michael Smith, Ryan Johnson, Donny Diaz and MacGregor Hines – earned JUCO World Series all-tournament honors and six players were drafted in the Major League Baseball First-Year Player Draft.

The 2016 season saw Arrington’s squad make another run for a national title, falling short to Yavapai College in the final game of the 2016 JUCO World Series. Three San Jac players were named to the JUCO World Series All-Tournament Team – catcher Baine Schoenvogel, pitcher Devin Smeltzer and designated hitter Ryan January; and seven players were selected in the Major League Baseball First-Year Player Draft. San Jac finished the season as the Region XIV South Zone champions, the undefeated Region XIV champions, and national runner-up, with an overall record of 51-12 and 31-9 in conference play. Arrington, in his 15th year as head coach, was named the Region XIV Coach of the Year for the 11th time. In 2015, San Jac recorded a 43-21 overall record, returning to the JUCO World Series for the 23rd time in school history. Riley Smith was selected in the 31st round of the Major League Baseball First-Year Player Draft, eight players earned post-season honors, 10 players were selected to participate in the Texas / New Mexico All-Star game, and a record 16 student-athletes signed National Letters of Intent to continue their education and baseball careers at four-year universities.

2014 produced a 30-win season for San Jac as the team went 32-28 overall, and 20-20 in conference play. Five players earned postseason awards, led by Josh Palacios and Matt Eureste who were named to the all-Region XIV team. In addition, Toller Boardman, Austin Homan and Josh Croft earned a spot on the all-Conference team. In June, six players were selected in the 2014 Major League Baseball (MLB) First-Year Player Draft.

In 2013, San Jacinto College again won the Region XIV South Conference Championship after a 35-21 (22-8) regular season. Four players earned all-conference honors, and Arrington was named the Region XIV Coach of the Year.

Arrington’s 2012 season was another 40-win season for San Jacinto College, as it went 41-27 on the way to a national runner-up, the second in three years. Arrington earned his 500th career win in a 3-0 win over Blinn College on Feb. 18. Starting pitcher A.J. Glasshof hurled a complete game no-hitter, the first nine inning no-hitter in the College’s history. Six players were named to the All-Conference team, and, for a fourth consecutive year, Arrington was named the South Zone Coach of the Year. The team shut out the defending JUCO champions Navarro College 1-0 in the final game of the regional tournament to earn a record 22nd trip to the national tournament.

The 2011 season ended earlier than Arrington would have liked, but the success of his team and players can’t be overlooked. It was another 40-win season (40-16) for San Jacinto College, six players were drafted in the Major League Baseball (MLB) First-year player draft, and the pitching duo of Tyler Wright and Miguel Pena went 20-4 overall, earning All-America honors.

The 2010 season was one of the most successful under Arrington. He guided San Jac to an unprecedented 21st trip to the NJCAA World Series, finishing as the national runner-up. Four players were named to the All-Tournament team in Grand Junction, three earned postseason honors and nine were selected in the MLB first-year player draft. San Jac’s appearance in the national championship game was the 12th in program history, and the national runner-up finish was the seventh. San Jac finished the season with a 52-12 overall record.

2009 was, by all measures, a successful season, despite not having a home field to play on due to construction at JR Harrison Field. Nine baseball student-athletes were named to the all- conference team, and Arrington was tabbed as the conference coach of the year. Deric Hawkins and Tommy Collier earned NJCAA All-American honors in leading San Jac to a 45-11 record, the conference title, and a tie for fourth at the World Series.

In 2008, Arrington led San Jac to a 44-14 record, and saw two of his players from that team drafted in the majors. San Jac advanced to the semifinals of the Region XIV tournament, just shy of a return trip to the JUCO World Series.

In 2007, Arrington guided San Jac to a 46-16 record, complete with another conference crown, Region XIV tournament title and a third- place finish at the World Series. Along the way, Arrington surpassed the 300-win mark as head coach at San Jacinto College. In his first six years as head coach (2001-2016), Arrington was 264-102.

Wayne Graham, now the head coach at Rice University, led San Jac to five national titles from 1985 to 1990 and won 586 games over 11 seasons. Graham’s successor, Chris Rupp, took San Jac to four consecutive World Series (1997, 1998, 1999, 2000), with appearances in the national championship game in 1998 and 1999.

While the national title has proven to be elusive to San Jac under Arrington’s tutelage, Arrington and his staff have helped more than 150 of San Jacinto players find homes at collegiate institutions, and over 70 at the professional level. For him, it’s all part of his obligation as the team’s leader. “It’s extremely gratifying to have quality athletes come in here and help us be what we believe is the premier junior college program in the country,” Arrington said. “First and foremost, they are getting a quality education and at the same time they are continuing to develop and showcase their skills to a point where they either move on to the Division I level on scholarship or sign professional contracts for large signing bonuses. I think we accomplish those three goals, including the education, as well as anyone in the nation.”

Arrington is confident the day will come when the national trophy again comes home to Houston. It will take skill, desire and some luck, but Arrington is committed to ensuring that current and future San Jacinto College players are placed in a great position to be successful. “We have that desire to sustain our performance on the field, and with that hopefully comes a dominance of the region,” Arrington said. “With nine trips (to the national tournament) in 15 years, I think we’re doing that. That highly coveted first national championship for this group of coaches and the players is still in our sights. When it’s our year, it will be our year. I also believe that when we win one, we may win several after that. Our time is coming.”

With Arrington’s intense focus on the prize, there’s no reason to doubt his confidence. As a player, he was intent on becoming the best he could be. His college career included two seasons at Texas A&M University, and he later pitched at the Triple A level for both the Montreal Expos and Texas Rangers.

Arrington began his coaching career in 1991 at the College of Mateo. Later came stops at San Francisco State University and College of Marin. In 2000, Arrington arrived in Houston as San Jac’s assistant coach, where he focused on the pitchers. Nearly two seasons later, he was named head coach, and in the Spring of 2011, was named the athletic director for the San Jacinto College North Campus.

“We look at our program as one of the best in the country,” Arrington said. “We also have an obligation to make sure these young men get the best education possible. That’s simply a personal belief of mine. We have to prepare these guys for lifelong success, not just baseball success. They have to be able to deal with success or failure on and off the field. We live in a demanding society, so we make sure our players are well prepared.”

The Mill Valley, Calif., native began his playing career at College of Marin where he was an all-conference selection. He then played two years at Texas A&M University where he earned two letters, was all-conference, and the Southwest Conference tournament most Valuable Player. He also earned the C.E. “Pat” Olsen MVP award. Arrington holds a master’s degree from San Francisco State University.

Arrington played professionally for the Triple A team of the Texas Rangers; in Guadalajara, Mexico; for the Salt Lake Trappers; and the Single A farm team of the Montreal Expos.

Coach Arrington and his wife, Marya, have a son Alden (18) and a daughter Anya Lily (15).

KORYKOEHLERASSISTANT CoachUniversity of Houston (2006)19th Season

A former catcher at San Jacinto College (1999-2000), Kory Koehler is now entering his 19th season with the team. As a player, Koehler was fortunate enough to play in two JUCO World Series, and during his time as a coach, the team has made 12 trips to Grand Junction. Obviously, Koehler appreciates the success he’s been a part of as a coach. Winning at a consistent level certainly involves having talented players and crafted coaches, but Koehler has seen San Jacinto College go the extra step.

“For me, each year is a new start. I’ve been very fortunate in my time here at San Jac. This is my alma mater and it means the world to me to continue to be a part of such a wonderful program. The 2016 season was incredible and had a roster of amazing young men. I look forward to another fantastic run in 2017 and I believe this year’s team has as good a chance as any in years past to bring that elusive sixth National Championship back to San Jac. Unfortunately, I have been on the losing end of six championship games, but I wouldn’t trade those experiences for the world. With that said, I would love to see our young men get to experience that moment after winning the final game of the season in Grand Junction, Colorado. Experiencing that moment is something we work so very hard for and we look forward to each and every year and I hope one day to experience that with Head Coach Tom Arrington, fellow coaches and staff, and most importantly our student-athletes.”

The 38-year-old Koehler, originally from North Bay, New York, graduated from the University of Houston in 2006 with a Bachelor of Science; and in 2008 with a Master of Education in Physical Education. In the summer of 2015, Kory led the Houston Collegiate League Gators to a league championship.

“Kory is an outstanding coach and an even better person that has a deep seeded passion for the development of players and for the success of the San Jac baseball program,” said Head Coach Tom Arrington. “He possesses a tireless commitment toward San Jacinto College baseball and the pursuit of a national championship. Over the last 17 years of our friendship and work together at San Jac, Kory has continued to take on additional responsibilities in his development. While he is in charge of recruiting, hitting and offensive planning and development of the team, he has also done a tremendous job in our community outreach.”

In addition to his duties with the San Jacinto College baseball team, Kory is the physical education lead faculty and wellness director on the San Jacinto College North Campus. He and his wife, Erika, were married in November 2006. The couple has two sons, Keaton Jax (6), and Kason Jett (2).

ERICWEAVERASSISTANT COACHTexas State University (2008)4th Season

Eric Weaver joined the San Jacinto College baseball coaching staff in the Fall of 2014 and hit the ground running. Among his duties at San Jac are pitching and infield coaching, and assisting with player recruitment. He also serves as the baseball facility coordinator. Weaver was a standout college pitcher and successful college coach, bringing with him talents and strengths that help the San Jacinto College baseball team.

“Since Eric joined the program, we have made three consecutive trips to the JUCO World Series,” said Head Coach Tom Arrington. “Eric works closely with Kory in the recruitment of prospective players within the state and region. He has a strong contact base of local high school coaches, professional scouts and player agents to draw upon in the search process. Weaver will also work closely with myself and Volunteer Assistant Coach Woody Williams in the development and planning of the pitching staff.”

In addition to coaching the team on the field, Weaver is also the academic coordinator of student-athletes at the North Campus. In this role he assesses each student-athlete’s course load, assists in preparing class schedules, develops transfer plans and coordinates a smooth and clean transition to National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) and National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) institutions.

Weaver graduated from Deer Park High School in 2003, where he was a two- sport standout, earning all-District honors in baseball and football. He went on to be a starting pitcher at Alvin Community College, and was voted to the Texas / New Mexico JUCO All-Star game after his freshman year. He was the team’s most valuable player in 2006, earning all-Conference recognition.

Weaver continued his academics and baseball at Texas State University, where he was ranked the fifth most effective pitcher in the Southland Conference in 2007, posting a 6-1 record in 30 appearances. That season, Weaver had five saves with a 2.23 ERA, allowing 33 hits and seven walks, with 33 strikeouts and a .212 opponents’ batting average. He saw limited action in his senior year due to a shoulder injury.

Weaver returned to Alvin Community College to serve as its infield coach and recruiting coordinator from 2011 to 2014. During that time, the Alvin baseball team won the South Zone Championship in 2014, and was ranked third in the nation in the Perfect Game poll, the highest national ranking in the college’s history. In 2014, Weaver served as an assistant coach in the Karl Young Collegiate League, a Houston-area summer league. He went on to serve as head coach in 2015, and did so again in 2016.

He holds a bachelor’s degree in applied arts & science from Texas State University. Weaver and his wife, Kassi, were married in 2012. The couple have two sons, Easton (2) and Nash (1). The family resides in Deer Park.

JASONKRUGVOLUNTEERASSISTANT COACHMissouri Valley College (1995)10th Season

WOODYWILLIAMSVOLUNTEERASSISTANT COACHAlvin Community College (1986)3rd Season

Jason Krug is in his 10th season with the San Jacinto College baseball coaching staff. Prior to joining the San Jacinto College program, he spent two seasons as a volunteer assistant coach at the University of Louisiana- Lafayette where he assisted in the coaching of the middle infielders and hitters. In 2007, the Ragin Cajuns won the Sun Belt Conference championship and advanced to the NCAA regional tournament.

“As first base coach, Jason works closely with Kory in the development and planning of the offensive approach of the team, but he is also in charge of the outfielder’s development, base-running and the team’s strength and nutrition programs,” said Head Coach Tom Arrington. “Jason is very positive and has an enthusiastic approach to his education of the players.”

In December 2007, Krug was named head coach of the Edenton (N.C.) Steamers in the Coastal Plains Summer Collegiate League. During the summer of 2008, the Steamers won the first-half divisional championship with an overall record of 20-7. For his efforts, he was named one of the head coaches for the 2008 Coastal Plains League All-Star game.

Krug has also held coaching positions as an assistant coach at Southwestern University, where he was the hitting coach. He worked as an instructor and coach for the Austin Wings, serving as the head coach for the 17-under premier showcase team. Other coaching stints include the 2000 AAU national finalist team and the 2001 Connie Mack state champions.

In 2006, Krug led the Wings to the 17-and-under Premier National Championship. Before entering the collegiate coaching ranks, Krug spent nine years teaching and coaching at the high school level. The 43-year old holds a bachelor’s degree in secondary education from Missouri Valley College, where he was a two-sport athlete in baseball and football.

Woody Williams may be in his third season as a volunteer assistant coach with the San Jacinto College baseball program, but he is no stranger to the game of baseball at any level. Williams played at Wharton County Junior College, Alvin College, and the University of Houston, before a professional career that spanned 20 seasons with the Toronto Blue Jays, San Diego Padres, St. Louis Cardinals and Houston Astros. His experience and wealth of knowledge will be an asset to the San Jac baseball program.

Prior to joining San Jacinto College in the Fall of 2015, Williams coached three years at Fort Bend Christian Academy, and spent two seasons with the Houston Heat.

“I am very excited to be here and be a part of this team,” Williams said. “I enjoy being around the players and helping them to grow as young men and baseball players. My coaching philosophy has always been to play the game in the right way with respect and integrity, and I hope I can show these players how to do that.”

Williams made his major league debut on May 14, 1993, for the Blue Jays. He began his pitching career in the majors as a reliever, but was moved to a full-time starter in 1997. His career blossomed after being traded to St. Louis in August of 2001, where he went 7-1 with a 2.28 ERA in 11 starts for the Cardinals. He went on to be named to the 2003 All-Star team, and pitched in the playoffs. The right hander says his most memorable moment playing baseball was pitching in the playoffs in 2001. “There’s no way to describe the feeling of playing in the playoffs,” he said. However, he says coaching is more satisfying than playing because of the opportunity to see kids grow into young men. His message to those kids wanting to play collegiately and professionally is, “You have to be coachable, willing to learn, and do whatever it takes to become the best in your craft.”

“I am honored and blessed to have Woody coaching alongside me,” said Head Coach Tom Arrington. “We have known each other for years, but over the past two seasons working together has been extremely rewarding to me not only from a coaching perspective, but a personal one as well. Woody is extremely knowledgeable of the game, as is evidenced in his playing experience, but more importantly he has a way of delivering this knowledge to the players in a way they can understand and utilize in their development. Though Woody’s primary responsibility is working with the development of the pitchers, his input in all areas of the team is welcomed.”

Williams and his wife, Kim, reside in Houston. The couple has four daughters (Katelyn, Sarah, Hannah and Lily) and a son (Caden).

SAN JAC PLAYERS IN PROFESSIONAL BASEBALL

San Jacinto College is as prolific as any two-year college in the nation when it comes to sending players to the professional ranks. In the last five years, 18 San Jacinto College baseball players have been selected in the Major League Baseball (MLB) First-Year Player Draft. Houston area baseball fans are well versed in the success of former players Andy Pettitte and Roger Clemens, but the list does not end there. Pitchers Matt Albers (Washington Nationals), Anthony Banda (Arizona Diamondbacks) and Daniel Stumpf (Detroit Tigers), and San Francisco first baseman Brandon Belt are former Gators now on major league rosters. 

Albers was originally drafted by the Houston Astros in the 23rd round of the 2001 First Year Player Draft. He has spent time on the roster in Baltimore, Boston, Arizona, Cleveland, Houston, Chicago (White Sox) and most recently with the Washington Nationals. Since his debut on July 25, 2006, Albers has gone 36-39 with a 4.13 ERA. He has started 24 games, pitching 665.0 innings. 

Banda went 2-3 last season with a 5.96 ERA. He saw action in eight games, starting four, and pitched in 25.2 innings.

Stumpf made his major league debut on April 7, 2016. In his two years in the major leagues, he is 0-1 with a 4.64 ERA. He’s appeared in 62 games and 42.2 innings pitched.

Belt helped the San Francisco Giants win the 2012 and 2014 World Series. He made his major league debut on March 31, 2011, with the Giants, and has been with the organization ever since. In 2017, Belt hit .241 in 382 at-bats and 104 games. He had 18 home runs, 27 doubles, and three triples.
