Retired Number 22 Gene Menges, Head Coach, 1970-86 22 The only number in San Jose State baseball history to have ever been retired - #22 - belongs to former Spartan head coach Gene Menges. The second-winningest coach in the school’s 94-year history of the sport, Menges led the team for 17 seasons and compiled a 467-434-4 career record. Twice, in 1978 and 1979, he was named Coach of the Year by the Northern California Baseball Association.

Menges received his bachelor’s degree from San Jose State in 1951. The quarterback of the 1948-50 Spartan football teams was one of the school’s most prolific passers, and his totals still rank among the best in Spartan history. He continued his education at his alma mater and received his master’s degree in 1957. While pursuing his education, he joined the Spartan coaching staff in 1952 as an assistant baseball coach before assuming the head coaching duties in 1970. He has the rank of professor emeritus in the human performance department at SJSU, and is also a member of the San Jose State University Sports Hall of Fame.

In the past we’ve been totally dependent on Municipal Stadium. (And) it gives us a chance to raise money for the program through the rental of the facility.” “I’m glad that we’ve been able to make a difference in the future of the program,” Fred Chasalow said, adding that another San Jose-area resident, Alan Smith, started the initial discussions and did a lot of the pre- liminary work with Piraro on the project.

The Koret Athletic Training Center The Koret Athletic Training Center, opened in November, 2001, is a state-of-the-art facility that encom- passes over 10,000 square feet of training space, and is located adjacent to Spartan Stadium, the athletic locker rooms and the football practice field.

The Koret Athletic Training Center also contains a 1,000-square-foot rehabilitation and training room that services physical therapy and sport-specific rehabilitation. The facility enables the sports medicine staff of athletic trainers, doctors and physical therapists to provide the best possible care to help prevent and rehabilitate injuries.

“Our Philosophy” • We teach a hands-on approach where the student-athlete is expected to develop a comprehensive understanding of not only the How’s, but also the Why’s of our program.

• We teach correct movement patterns to optimize efficiency and performance.

• Our program design is centered on ground-based, free weight, multi-joint movements that will transfer to the playing field and keep our student-athletes out of our sports medicine facility.

• Our primary concern is the development of speed in all our sports.

• We develop speed and flexibility through strength.

• Our speed program consists of functional and straight-line speed training. Functional means acceleration, deceleration and change-of-direction work.

• We train through an entire range-of-motion in all lifts to enhance active flexibility, develop strength to prevent injury, and unlock joints with mobility issues.

• Olympic-based movements are utilized for speed of movement, active flexibility and dynamic stability.

• Squats and deadlifts have a permanent home in our program for developing hip strength and back stability. Single- leg variations are used to fix strength imbalance and lateral deficits.

“The Koret Athletic Training Center is one of the ‘crown jewels’ of the San Jose State University athletics program. The sheer size of the facility stops you in your tracks. We have everything a strength and conditioning program could conceivably need at our fingertips. Our student-athletes and coaches are truly blessed to CHRIS HOLDER JEREMY LAYPORT have such a beautiful facility.” Director of Strength & Strength & -Chris Holder, San Jose State director of strength & conditioning Conditioning Conditioning/Baseball 84 2010 San Jose State University Baseball Media Guide Jeff Garcia Hall of Champions
