We are very excited for the talent and physicality that this incoming class will bring to Saint Mary’s baseball” (Costanza). 

“First off, we’d like to congratulate our thirteen signees and their families”, said fellow Associate Head Coach and Hitting Coach Jack Meggs. “This class is extremely well rounded from top to bottom and all of them will make an immediate impact. It’s a great day to be a Gael and we can’t wait to get these guys on campus!” (Meggs).
