Meggs Named New UW Baseball Coach

SEATTLE - After three years spent building the Indiana State baseball team into a winning program, Lindsay Meggs returns to the West Coast as he has been named the new head baseball coach at the University of Washington, athletic director Scott Woodward announced today.

Meggs, 46, who won two NCAA Division II national titles while at Chico State, served as the Indiana State head coach for the 2007, 2008 and 2009 seasons. This past year, he was named Missouri Valley Conference Coach of the Year after leading Indiana State to a 33-21 overall record and a 15-7 mark in MVC play, good enough to earn the No. 2 seed in the conference tournament.

Prior to his 13 seasons in Chico, Meggs was head coach at Long Beach City College for three seasons, going 75-51-1 with three trips to the playoffs during his term with the Vikings. He was also head coach at Oxnard College (1989-90) and was an assistant coach at Cal Lutheran (1988-89) and De Anza Junior College (1987-88)

Congratulations to coach Meggs and the Washington Huskies.

Aug 4, 2009 ... Well, the Huskies once again have made a statement with the addition of San Francisco assistant coach and recruiting coordinator Greg Moore. GIARRATANO ON MOORE: "Greg has emerged as one of the nation's elite after having two quality left-handed pitchers that were undrafted after high school, go in the first round.(Aaron Poreda and Evan Fredrickson) We wish him all the best."

Gregg, a product of Millikan High School and LBCC is a tireless recruiter and excellent talent evaluator. He will make an immediate impact at UW. Congratulations to Gregg....another Viking makes good.
