Archives - Episode 57 - Extra Innings with Mark Marquess, Stanford University

We are connecting with legendary Stanford University coach Mark Marquess as we go ‘Extra Innings’ to reflect his journey in the game, elevating the Cardinal to one of the more prominent household names in college baseball. Inside this show, Marquess opens up on his growth as a coach throughout his over 1,600 wins, 25 NCAA Regional Appearances, 15 trips to Omaha and the College World Series, bringing two national championships home to Palo Alto. Marquess delivers his passionate approach to coaching for relationships while also offering his viewpoint on the surge of travel baseball and its effect on team building and specialization. This show also finds us getting more than a few chuckles from Marquess, who was one the more intense competitors in his dugout, and we uncover his approach to playing the game the right way, which exemplifies his designation as one of this year’s recipients of the ABCA Dave Keilitz Ethics in Coaching Award.
