This week, we take a deep dive into NCAA baseball to talk about Team USA Head Coach, Mark Marquess! Marquess was an All American at Stanford, then spent 5 years in the minors and at 28 was hired as Head Coach at his alma mater in 1977. He won back to back College World Series titles in 1987 and 88, followed up by an Olympic Gold Medal in Seoul. He coached 240+ professional players and left a legacy of success at Stanford. Mark passed away in early 2026.
RIP Mark Marquess 1947-2026
