Gregg Swenson, a 22-year veteran of coaching college baseball, has been hired as the varsity head baseball coach at King’s Way Christian High School, athletic director Ted Buck announced Monday.
Swenson replaces Ty Singleton, who stepped down last month after four years with the program.
Swenson has spent the past two seasons as the pitching coach at the University of Portland, where he also served as the Academic Coordinator and Community Outreach Coordinator for the Pilots.
Prior to join the UP staff, Swenson spent 10 seasons as the pitching coach at Washington State. In his 26 years of coach, he also has had stops at the University of Washington, Tacoma Community College and Sehome High School. At Washington, he worked with two-time Cy Young Award winner Tim Lincecum.
