New Monterey Baseball Coach

My money’s on Kent Meador, but I could be wrong.  KLBK says it’s a Lubbock native, Coronado grad, Tech grad and currently highly successful coach in the Houston area.  Meador fits that bill, and I think his 5A team went to the state playoffs regularly.  They were state bound in 2007 and this past year dropped out in the regional quarterfinals.  He’s won awards for coaching in the Houston area and coached several Houston area all-star teams.  I think he’s been a finalist for several coaching jobs on the South Plains recently such as Frenship.  Sounds like a Lubbock native trying to get back home.

Anyway – might be wrong but that’s what I think tonight.  We’ll all find out tomorrow.

If I’m right — a Coronado grad in charge of Plainsmen baseball….how they gonna take that?  ;)

  1. About the same as a Monterey grad in charge of Mustang baseball. A coach is a coach, and the best one in town seems to once again be at Monterey.

  2. I just thought Monterey baseball, as a program and among alumni, considered itself a “step above”, and so might prefer to go with someone with a Monterey connection. I agree, however, that a good coach is a good coach regardless of what prep program he went through (and a bad coach is a bad coach…).

    I wish the next head coach at Monterey all the success in the world.
