Jason Gill is a former All-Big West Conference infielder for the
Titans and he returns for his second stint on the coaching staff, replacing
former assistant coach/recruiting coordinator Dave Serrano. Gill, 32,
will handle the first base coaching duties as well as work with the hitters
and infielders.
Gill, who began his coaching career at Cal State Fullerton as a manager
on the 1995 National Championship squad, spent the last three seasons
as an assistant coach with the Big West Conference rival UC Irvine Anteaters,
working with the infielders and being heavily involved with the program’s
recruiting efforts. UC Irvine’s first recruiting class was ranked
eighth by Baseball America and the following two classes were among the
top 30 according to Collegiate Baseball.
Prior to UCI, Gill was an assistant coach at Loyola Marymount of the West
Coast Conference. He helped guide the Lions to WCC titles in 1999 and
2000, earning postseason berths in both years. He also served two years
as an assistant coach at Nevada (1997-98).
Gill played one season for the Titans in 1994 after spending the first
two years of his collegiate career at Cuesta College and his junior season
at Cal State Dominguez Hills. He hit .345 with 13 RBI while starting 43
games as a senior third baseman, helping the Titans to a 47-16 overall
record and a berth in the College World Series.
A local product who prepped at Mater Dei HS in Santa Ana, Gill received
his bachelors degree in kinesiology in 1996. He and his wife, Kacey, live
in Costa Mesa.
