Baseball: Garland named interim head coach

June 4, 2008

Lacey, WA – Ken Garland has been named as the interim head coach of the Saint Martin’s baseball team as announced by Athletic Director Bob Grisham.

Garland has spent the last six years as the assistant coach for the Saints under former head coach Joe Dominiak, who resigned from the position last month. The new appointment will be a one year tenure.

“With the University looking at potential to restructure other coaching positions on campus into full time positions, along with the timing of Joe’s resignation and the impact on recruiting we felt that it was best for the program to hire Ken as the interim,” said Grisham.

Garland’s coaching resume includes stints at Willamette University, Linfield College and most recently head baseball coach at the University of Puget Sound.

“I’m very excited for the opportunity to direct the program and move it forward in the direction that we’ve been going,” said Garland. “I am familiar with all of the returners which will help not only in my evaluation of them but also help them be more comfortable with the transition.”
