Coaching Staff Bios

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 saw San Jac record another 30-win season, going 31-26 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 spots 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 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 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 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

Tom ArringtonHead CoachTexas A&M University (1987)Overall: 596-237 (.715), 13 seasons

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, 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 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.”

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.

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 (15) and a daughter Anya Lily (12).

Assistant coach Jimmy Durham, now in his 10th 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 (24), Maggie (23), Kyle (21), Andrew (18), AnnaMae (16), and Hannah (15). Jimmy and his wife Shannon were married on July 23, 2011.

A former catcher at San Jacinto College (1999-2000), Kory Koehler is now entering his 15th season 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.

“As a staff, we are excited about the new direction the program has taken,” Koehler said. “With change comes new opportunity. With new opportunity comes new responsibility. And with that comes renewed excitement. I am honored that Coach Arrington has entrusted me to manage the offensive aspect of the game.”

The 35-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.

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 a son Keaton Jax (3), and is expecting their second child Karson Jet, in March 2015.

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 will help the San Jacinto College baseball team. “Eric will diversify our approach to recruiting players within the local area and state,” said Head Coach Tom Arrington. “He has a strong contact base and is highly respected in the region. He shows a great passion for the game and the development of young players. He also possesses a great knowledge of situational strategies, which will be an asset to me during time management.”

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. Last season, Weaver served as an assistant coach in the Karl Young Collegiate League, a Houston-area summer league, and will serve as head coach in 2015.

He holds a bachlor’s degree in occupational education from Texas State University. Weaver and his wife, Kassi, were married in 201, and the couple lives in Deer Park.

Jason Krug is in his seventh 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.

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.

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 Washington Nationals, Lucas Luetge of the Seattle Mariners, Sean Nolin of the Oakland Athletics, 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 4.42 ERA. He has appeared in 23 games, pitching 515.1 innings.

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 in 532 innings pitched. He played with the Chicago White Sox from 2011-2013, and was picked up by the Houston Astros prior to the 2014 season.

As for other San Jac players in the professional ranks:

Anthony Banda, Arizona (P)2014: Posted a 14-13 record with a 3.95 ERA in 221.0 innings pitched as a member of the South Bend Cubs and Wisconsin Timber Rattlers.

Jeremy Barfield, Oakland (OF)2014: Hit .261 in 142 at-bats as a member of the Midland RockHounds. Posted 37 hits, including six doubles, two triples, and three homeruns, scoring 16.

Casey Beck (P)2012 (last season played): Saw action in give games and just 6.0 innings.

Tommy Collier, Detroit (P)2014: Went 7-10 with a 5.14 ERA. Pitched in 133.0 innings for the Erie SeaWolves and Lakeland Flying Tigers.

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 three seasons in the big leagues, he is 3-5 with a 4.47 ERA in 86.2 innings pitched.

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. In two seasons in the major leagues, he is 2-1.

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 2014, Belt hit ..243 with 12 home runs, 27 RBI, 30 runs scored, and three stolen bases in 61 games played.
