Show Notes

In our fifth installment of the ABCA Hall of Fame Podcasts, we speak with Wayne Graham. He coached for 38 seasons between high school, San Jacinto College and Rice University. In 11 seasons at San Jac he won 675 games, had an .875 winning percentage and won five national championships in six seasons. He was named JUCO Coach of the Century by Baseball America. In 1992, he took over a Rice University program which had seven winning seasons and no postseason appearances in 78 years. From 1995-2017, Rice made 23-straight NCAA Regional appearances, seven College World Series appearances and won the national championship in 2003. Graham embodies winning and also balance. He had a keen recruiting eye for finding diamonds in the rough.
