SAN JAC BASEBALL IN THE COMMUNITY
San Jacinto College baseball student-athletes are committed to giving back to their community. Each year, the team
participates in a number of events on and off the field. From supporting breast cancer awareness with the annual
Play Pink game and visiting children in the hospital, to participating in the Challenger game at the Junior
College World Series, San Jacinto College baseball student-athletes understand the impact they have on
their community.

Wright and Miguel Pena went 20-4 overall, earning AllAmerica honors.
Tom Arrington
Head Coach
Texas A&M University (1987)
Overall record: 565-211
(.728), 13 seasons
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 eight trips to the National Junior College
Athletic Association (NJCAA) JUCO World Series, including
four appearances in the national title game, culminating as
the national runner-up in 2003, 2004, 2010, and 2012.
Last season, 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 40-24 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 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 runnerup 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, where he’s now
492-168 (.745) over seven seasons.
Wayne Graham, now the head coach at Rice University, led
San Jac to five national titles from 1985 to 1990 and won

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 40win season for San Jacinto College,
six players were drafted in the Major
League Baseball (MLB) first-year player
draft, and the pitching duo of Tyler

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 100 of San Jacinto players find homes
at the collegiate and professional levels. 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 seven trips (to the national
tournament) in 10 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.”
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 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 (14)
and a daughter Anya Lily (11).

With Arrington’s intense focus on the prize, there’s no
reason to doubt his confidence. As a player, Arrington
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.

Jimmy Durham
Assistant Coach
DJ Wilson
Lubbock Christian
University (1981)
Ninth Season
University of Houston (2004)
18th Season
Assistant coach Jimmy Durham, now in his ninth season with
San Jacinto College, understands plenty about winning. In
2005, Durham was an assistant coach at New Mexico Junior
College when the Thunderbirds won the National Junior
College Athletic Association (NJCAA) JUCO World Series. He
came to San Jacinto College with the same goal in mind and
knows that San Jacinto College is on target – especially after
the success of the past several seasons.
“I think the standard for excellence and for winning at a high
level has been set, and the players who come to San Jacinto
College understand that and in turn do what’s necessary to
be successful,” noted Durham. “You do have to have some luck
to win the national title, but you also have to have the players
and the dedication to be great. We have both of those here.”
A former high school standout in the Houston area at
Madison High School, Durham played collegiately at Ranger
Junior College and Lubbock Christian. He then went on to
coach at the high school level at Livingston and Clements. He
knows the area well and has used his connections to help San
Jac recruit the best talent available. On the field, San Jac has
used that talent to win big.
“We push our players to be better, but they expect that from
us,” Durham said. “That’s why they come here. The players are
looking for future success in the Division I ranks and perhaps
the professional level. San Jacinto College is a great place to
continue that growth as a player.”
Durham holds a bachelor of science degree from Lubbock
Christian University and a master’s degree from the University
of Houston. He has six children: Tyler (23), Maggie (22), Kyle
(20), Andrew (17), AnnaMae (15), and Hannah (14). Jimmy and
his wife Shannon were married on July 23, 2011.
Assistant Coach
Entering his 18th season at San Jacinto College, assistant coach
D.J. Wilson has seen a tremendous amount of success with the
program. Since coming to San Jacinto College, Wilson has been
part of 12 national tournament teams, including six that have
played for the national championship. “I feel very fortunate to
be part of such a winning program, and having been to the
JUCO World Series 12 times,” said Wilson. “Although we fell just
short of a national title in those six games, I am still very proud
of all of the players on those teams. Each and every time I’ve
been to the JUCO World Series, it has felt like the first time, and
has been very special for me.”
Wilson feels fortunate to have helped coach numerous
players that have gone on to play in the professional ranks,
and some that have played in the big leagues. “As we work
hard to continue to get the top talent from the area, the state,
and across the nation, I have the privilege of working with
great players and great young men every season.”
Wilson has been a part of eleven conference championships
(1999, 2002, 2003, 2005, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012,
2013) while at San Jacinto College, and contributes a major
part of the program’s success to the College’s administration.
“We have had some success getting top student-athletes into
our baseball program and the support from our administration
and faculty go a long way toward their success on and off the
field,” noted Wilson. “We continue every year to help our players
be successful on the field, and prepare them for success at the
next level. They are also prepared to move on to major NCAA
Division I universities and four-year colleges, and get a chance
to earn an education through athletics. We are very proud of
the number of baseball student-athletes that continue on to
the next level both academically and professionally.”
Wilson also coached in the Karl Young Collegiate League in
Houston, where he won the league championship twice as
head coach of the Rough Necks from 1998 to 2004.
The 39-year-old Wilson played collegiately at San Jacinto
College before moving on to the University of Houston where
he graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in English. He holds
a Master of Education in Health and Kinesiology from the
University of Texas at Tyler. He and his wife, Alisha, have three
daughters, Kylee (13), Madeline (7), and Leighton (2).

Jason Krug
Kory Koehler
Assistant Coach
Assistant Coach
Missouri Valley College
(1995)
Sixth Season
University of Houston (2006)
14th Season
A former catcher at San Jacinto College (1999-2000), Kory
Koehler is now entering his 14th season as an assistant
coach with the team. As a player, Koehler got to play in
the JUCO World Series, and during his time as a coach, the
team has made eight 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.
“The game slows down a lot when you’re coaching,” Koehler
said. “You understand the intricacies a lot more as a coach.
It’s a chess match between the two teams. I think we do a
good job of controlling our emotions and letting the game
come to us as opposed to trying to force the action. “I have
played and coached along with some amazing coaches,”
noted Koehler. “It was a pleasure to be a part of Tom
Arrington’s 500th win here at San Jacinto College. He has
been a mentor and great friend, and I am fortunate to be a
part of San Jacinto College baseball.”
The 34-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. Prior to coaching at San Jacinto College,
he coached Adrean Post 625, Oneida County American Legion
in Utica, N.Y., and the League City Hornets and Stan Musial
Saints in Houston.
Jason Krug is in his sixth season with the San Jacinto College
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.
In December 2007, Krug was named the 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 42-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.
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, and welcomed
their first child, Keaton Jax, in April 2011.

SAN JAC PLAYERS IN PROFESSIONAL BASEBALL
San Jacinto College is as prolific as any other two-year school in
the nation when it comes to sending players to the professional
ranks. In the last three years, 10 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 doesn’t end there. Pitchers Matt
Albers and Jesse Crain, both now with the Houston Astros,
Mike Gonzalez of the Milwaukee Brewers, Lucas Luetge of
the Seattle Mariners, Sean Nolin of the Toronto Blue Jays, and
San Francisco first baseman Brandon Belt are also former San
Jacinto College players on major league rosters heading into
spring training.
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, and Cleveland before
returning to Houston for the 2014 season. Since his debut on
July 25, 2006, Albers has gone 25-31 with a 4.49 ERA.
Crain has been in the majors since making his debut in August
2004 with the Minnesota Twins. He is 45-30 overall with a 3.05
ERA and four saves. He played with the Chicago White Sox from
2011-2013, and was picked up by the Houston Astros prior to the
2014 season.
Mike Gonzalez made his major league debut on August 11,
2003 in Pittsburgh, where he spent four seasons with the
Pirates before moving on to Atlanta, Baltimore, Washington,
and Milwaukee. In his 10 year MLB career, he owns a 3.14 ERA
with an overall record of 17-24 with 56 saves.
Luetge was called up to the Mariners in 2012 and was part of a
six-pitcher no-hitter versus the Dodgers on June 8, 2012. In two
seasons in the big leagues, he is 3-5 with a 4.40 ERA.
Nolin made his major league debut on May 24, 2013 with the
Toronto Blue Jays, prior to spending three and a half seasons in
the minors. While in the minors he was 23-10 with a 2.95 ERA in
341.1 innings pitched.
Belt helped the San Francisco Giants win the 2012 World Series.
He made his major league debut on March 31, 2011, with the
Giants, and has been with the organization ever since. In 2013,
Belt hit .289 with 17 home runs, 67 RBIs, 76 runs scored, and
five stolen bases in 150 games.
As for other San Jac players in the professional ranks:
Anthony Banda, Milwaukee (P)
2013: Posted a 3-4 overall record with a 4.45 ERA as a member
of the Helena Brewers.
Tommy Collier, Detroit (P)

JOHN RAY HARRISON FIELD
The commitment to excellence of the
San Jacinto College baseball program is
evident by the continuing efforts to keep
John Ray Harrison Field on the forefront
of junior college baseball. A lighting
system and gated entrance were installed
in 2002, and in 2009, a major overhaul of
the filed was completed.
After the 1993 season, major renovations
took place to John Ray Harrison Field.
The San Jacinto Board of Trustees voted
unanimously for the improvements. The
renovations centered around new dressing
rooms connected to the home and visitor
dugouts, with 30 lockers and showers. The
dugouts, a 15-foot warning track around the
entire field, an improved draining system,
public rest rooms, and a new pressbox /
concession stand were also included.
San Jac baseball moved to its current home
at the North Campus over 20 years ago.
Prior to that, all home games were played at
the Central Campus.

Surrounded by the monuments of history, the industries
and maritime enterprises of today, and the space age of
tomorrow, San Jacinto College has been serving the citizens
of East Harris County, Texas, since 1961. The Achieving
the Dream Leader College is committed to the goals and
aspirations of a diverse population of 30,000 credit students
in more than 200 degree and certificate options, including
university transfer and career preparation. Students also
benefit from the College’s job training programs, renowned
for meeting the needs of growing industries in the region. The
College’s service area includes the Channelview, Deer Park,
Galena Park, La Porte, Pasadena and Sheldon Independent
School Districts, as well as portions of the Humble, Pearland,
and Clear Creek school districts.
San Jacinto College’s roots date back to May of 1960 when
voters in the district approved the creation of East Harris
County Union Junior College and a seven-member Board of
Regents was established. The name was changed a few times
over its history to its current San Jacinto Community College
District, although it has always been informally referred to
as San Jacinto College. In September of 1961, 876 students
attended the College at its location in Pasadena. Since then, the
College has grown to include three campuses and 12 extension
centers; a continuing and professional development division
for continuing education and workforce training; distance
learning; a dual credit program with local high schools, early
college high schools in cooperation with Clear Creek ISD,
Pasadena ISD, and Sheldon ISD; and an enrollment of more
than 30,000 credit students each semester.
San Jacinto College is committed to the citizens of East
Harris County. At the core of our values is student success...
the reason for our being. Our comprehensive community
college mission is to empower students who come with a
wide variety of goals to find the assistance they need at their
college, San Jacinto College.
We have made a strong commitment to academic excellence,
and our award-winning faculty members are passionate about
teaching. Our students choose from more than 200 degree
and certificate programs in many different fields including
academic transfer programs to four-year institutions and a
wide variety of workforce training programs.
The College has placed an emphasis on upgrading facilities
and technology to support student learning. Over the last
decade, San Jacinto College has added new buildings to
support teaching and learning in the sciences, fine arts, and
technology fields.
In September 2008, San Jacinto College faced unprecedented
challenges in the wake of Hurricane Ike. The College sustained
significant damage, and as a result, was closed for two and a
NICHOLS GYMNASIUM
half weeks following the storm. The instructional leaders and
faculty diligently worked on a plan to complete all course
learning outcomes through in-class instruction, out-of-class
assignments, and incorporating technology into learning to
allow students to successfully complete the semester without
extending the term. The College plan was highly applauded
by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS)
accreditation site visit team in November of 2008, when it
granted the College reaccreditation.
In 2011, San Jacinto College was recognized as a leader in the
national student completion movement when it was named an
Achieving the Dream Leader College. Throughout the course
of its participation in Achieving the Dream, San Jacinto College
increased Fall-to-Spring persistence through a combination
of interventions including the First Year Experience Calling
Program, Mandatory New Student Orientation, a student
success course, free tutoring, and the Men of Honor program.
San Jacinto College continues to lead in the Gulf Coast
through grant-funded partnerships and collaboration with
other colleges and organizations. The funds support student
success through academic programs and initiatives promoting
college retention and completion, regional workforce training,
scholarships and tuition of various student programs, and
creates pathways to higher education and to the workforce for
middle and high school students.
Students and employees come to San Jacinto College with
various goals and aspirations, and we remain committed to
their success.
