WASHINGTON – GW Baseball Head Coach Gregg Ritchie has announced the addition of Ramon Garza to his coaching staff ahead of the 2026 season. Garza joins the program as an Assistant Coach for the Buff & Blue.
Garza arrives in Foggy Bottom after spending one season as the Head Coach for Dallas College - Mountain View's baseball program. Garza led the Lions to the postseason for the first time since 2019, seeing two of his players earn all-conference honors in the process.
"We're extremely excited to have Ramon put on the Buff & Blue and join the GW Baseball family," said Ritchie. "He brings the GW Revs a solid development, instructing and coaching skill set that will have a great impact on our student-athletes. Ramon is a person of visibly high character and tremendous experience that align with our standards, values and goals. He owns an infectious passion that is dedicated and committed to delivering the best experience for our young men, both on and off the field. GW Baseball is pleased to welcome Ramon Garza to The Tuck!"
Prior to taking over at Mountain View, Garza spent one season as an assistant at Dallas College Eastfield, seeing unprecedented success in the process. The Bees amassed an impressive 50-15 overall record, advancing to the NJCAA Division III National Championship. Garza's guidance helped lead the program to a DAC regular season championship and finished as the NJCAA Division III South Central District runner-up. Garza helped develop two NJCAA All-Americans in pitcher Marcus Peters and first baseman Payton Poole, while also being named the American Baseball Coaches Association NJCAA Assistant Coach of the Year.
Garza's coaching career began in 2022, becoming the Head Coach for the Charlottesville Tom Sox for one season, winning the Valley Baseball League championship in the process. This parlayed into a coaching role with his alma mater, the University of Texas at Dallas, serving as a volunteer assistant for the Comets from 2022-23.
Garza's collegiate playing career started at Cornell, where he started all three seasons with the Big Red from 2017-20 at shortstop. He ultimately transferred to UT Dallas in 2021, putting together a decorated career, which included a D3Baseball.com First Team All-America selection in 2022 and Second Team All-America selections from the Baseball Coaches Association and Rawlings in the same season. Garza led the Comets to two conference titles in his two seasons, picking up numerous all-conference and all-region awards in the process.
Garza earned a bachelor's degree in applied economics from Cornell in 2020 and graduated with a master's degree in finance from UT Dallas in 2022.
