When I consider some of the best moments in the history of Gaucho Baseball there are instantly a few that come to mind; Sam Cohen's walk off grand slam to send UCSB to the CWS in 2016, Joey Epperson's walk off homer against UC Irvine in 2013 & Chris Malec's homer off of Jered Weaver returning from cancer in 2005. Now insert LeTrey McCollum's walk off 2-run home run to complete the cycle on Sunday v CSUN into that list, the first cycle for UCSB since Michael Young's in 1997.
McCollum joins us this week on the podcast to talk about he thrilling moment, as well as UCSB Analytics to break down the previous 8 games which saw the Gauchos go 7-1 and improve to 14-2 (3-0 BW). UCSB now ranks as high as 15 amongst the various polls and has been between 90-100 in the RPI after week 4.
Gauchos fly to Honolulu to resume BigWest play v Hawaii beginning at 935pst on Friday night, audio only will be available for all of the games on UCSBGauchos.com.

To celebrate the upcoming 2024 UCSB Baseball Alumni Weekend we brought in 3 personalities to discuss the famous Hammerheads. Coach Al Ferrer, All-American Bill Geivett, and Hammerhead Leader Casey Gorman join the pod to reminisce and tell the stories. The Hammerheads were a student run group of super fans who began attending Gaucho Baseball games down the stretch of the 1983 Conference Championship season. Led by Gaucho Men's Volleyball Captain, Casey Gorman, the group brought a unique and tangible energy to games which made opponents fear playing on the road in Santa Barbara. During their heyday, the Hammerheads helped root on the talented loaded teams who won 172 games between '83 & '86 and 2 conference titles under Coach Ferrer. The spirit of the Hammerheads was rekindled in 2012 by Gorman and have dedicated their efforts to fundraising scholarship funds for the Gauchos while having fun on the side.
