EUGENE, Ore. – Oregon head baseball coach Mark Wasikowski announced Wednesday the addition of former Major League player Blake Hawksworth as Oregon's new pitching coach.
Hawksworth comes to Oregon after spending the last 20-plus years playing and working in a variety of roles in both professional and college baseball. A former big leaguer, Major League Baseball agent and collegiate pitching coach who helped lead his team to the College World Series, Hawksworth joins Wasikowski's staff after stints at Cal State Fullerton, Grand Canyon and UC Irvine.
"Blake is the total package in terms of what we were looking for in a pitching coach," Wasikowski said.
