Building Championship Culture with Paul Svagdis – Westmont College Head Baseball Coach
In this episode of Significant Coaching, Matt Rogers sits down with legendary baseball coach Paul Svagdis, now leading the program at Westmont College. With over 850 career wins, 10 conference titles, and a proven track record at every collegiate level, Coach Svagdis shares the core principles that have shaped his success—on and off the field.
They discuss what it truly takes to build a winning culture, how to lead with consistency, and why Stephen Vogt, two-time MLB All-Star and current manager of the Cleveland Guardians, remains a lasting example of the kind of player and person Coach Svagdis develops.
