Scott Winterburn is the Head Baseball Coach at the University of La Verne in the Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SLIAC).
After leading his alma Mater, Asuza Pacific, for one year, Scott took over the Leopard program in 2001 and quickly turned it into a national power.
He’s led the Leo’s to 6 SCIAC titles and 8 NCAA National Tournaments in the last 23 years. Most recently, he was named SCIAC Coach of the Year and D3baseball.com Region 10 Coach of the Year in 2023 and 2024.
He’s had 6 players move on to play professionally including Scott Lindeen who was a 26th round pick by the Miami Marlins in 2005 and his All-American son, Joe Winterburn who was drafted in the 40th round by the Boston Red Sox in 2014.
After 32 years of collegiate coaching, Burn still has the same energy and passion for coaching he had in his twenties and let me tell you, it’s contagious.
We had a great conversation about everything from program building, the new NCAA roster and scholarship rules and of course his great wisdom and advice to families about college recruiting. Enjoy!
