Ohlone Baseball announces the addition of Nick Sanzeri to our staff. “Nick will immediately assume the role of pitching coach. It also allows me to move Cole Mauter to Associate Head Coach. And as far as Nick, he is the premier pitching coach on the West Coast.” - Mike Curran
Brad Norton, like ALL of our players, is an amazing young man. That’s a credit to the MOM, Lisa (& husband Todd). Lisa passed away on Nov 13, 2017. Lisa, you are the BEST mom EVER. We know you are in Heaven watching over Brad, Erica, & the Gades. You will ALWAYS be remembered!
Ohlone Baseball is FAMILY - every player is forever a Renegade. Jackson Nystrom (2023) is one of the BEST players and persons we’ve EVER had. Recently, Jackson (currently playing at USF), was diagnosed with cancer. We ask prayers for his recovery. The Gades are here for you Nys!
Ohlone pitchers look strong w/ 15 K’s last night against Division I Santa Clara. Great opportunity to play a well-coached, hard-working, detail-oriented D I program. They have tremendous talent. SCU Baseball, its coaches/players, & Schott Stadium are top-notch. Thank you, SCU.
Former Ohlone second baseman Luke O’Brien (‘18, ‘19) has accepted an offer to play UCSD, who will transition to NCAA D 1 in 2021! Great day for OC second baseman’s (see previous 2 tweets!).
Redshirting is taboo to many who think JC baseball will be easy. Last fall, our staff spoke to @EmmittPhinney about benefits of a RS. We had 6’3 to 6’6 guys all over the field; he could gain experience, strength, size. Yesterday was his first college AB; ball not found yet. 👏 💣

I got to spend a week coaching in Asia last year w/ Orange Coast HC John Altobelli. He was a WONDERFUL guy. I texted him at 11:00 this morn to offer comfort, knowing he was friends w/ Kobe Bryant. Found out 1 hr ago he was on the flight. May God bless you Alto. Devastating.
Congrats to the GOAT! Cam Calvillo has committed to Division I Gonzaga. Calvillo’s hard work saw him hit .364 this year, with 11 extra base hits and 15/16 SB’s. He has a +arm across the infield. #Respect#renegadeforlife
Ohlone Baseball announces the addition of Nick Sanzeri. “Nick is outstanding in his development of arms,” according to Coach Curran. Sanzeri comes to The OC from D1 UOP. He has tutored close to 100 Division I arms, and 20 MLB / MiLB arms. “He’s a great guy, and great teacher.”
Ohlone Wins to advance to Super Regional again! Andrew Amato and Zac Patterson dominate on the hill while Brett Tressen drives in Max Heverly to win it! See the winning call on our Ohlone broadcast, featuring the call of Bob Borzone, our official OC voice!
