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

“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 well 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

MLB players in his time at St. Pius and his son Kyle was a tremendous player at
both Navarro College and later at Arkansas Little Rock. Also, Coach Kirk served at
a police officer for over 20 years. His passion for young men doing the right thing
all the time will help groom our players into great citizens moving forward,” said
Head Coach Tom Arrington.

charge of the infielders and outfielders. During his time at St. Pius X, they won two
state championships and three district championships. James has coached and
