Baseball With Another Coaching Staff Hire
From the official site:
Steve Pearse, a veteran of 20 years of coaching experience, has been named assistant baseball coach at UCLA, according to an announcement made by head coach John Savage. Pearse will serve as the infield and base running coach, assist recruiting efforts and work with the hitters with assistant coach Rick Vanderhook.In 20 seasons as an assistant coach, including 17 at the Division I level, Pearse's teams have advanced to nine NCAA Regionals and one College World Series (California, 1992). As a student-athlete at Fresno State (1987-88), Pearse helped lead the Bulldogs to the 1988 College World Series and a program-best 56-12 record.
"Steve is one of the best infield coaches in the West," Savage said. "He has tremendous knowledge of the game, and he will bring a lot to our program both on and off the field. Steve has coached at the Division I level the past 17 seasons, and we are very excited for him to join us at UCLA."
Looks like Savage is retooling his coaching staff, especially on the heels of hiring Vanderhook...nice to know that Savage has been active during the offseason; that postseason/Fullerton hump the past two seasons needs to be taken care of, but we'll see how it works out come next February.
