Sean’s love for baseball started at a young age with a father who coached him and his 2 brothers. His dad coached and older brother played in the Little League World Series in 1995 (Yorba Hills Little League).
Sean went on a few years later to set a season home run record in that league and area with 26 HRs his 12 yr old year. Sean went on to Esperanza HS in Anaheim, CA and earned 1st team All-League (co-MVP) and All-County honors. After he signed to attend and play at UC Davis, he was led back to Orange County to play at Saddleback Community College. Just before the spring season of 2006, Sean rededicated his life to Christ. He went on to become the Triple Crown winner (leader in AVG, HR, and RBI), Conference Player of the Year, and 1st Team All-American. He then signed with Pepperdine University; where his older brother, Patrick played and younger brother, Colin, would later go on to play.
In June, the Washington Nationals drafted him in the 8th round of the 2006 MLB First Year Player Draft. Sean received Gulf Coast Nationals Player of the Week twice in 2006 and was named a South Atlantic League All-Star in 2008. The Hagerstown Suns named him Defensive Player of the Year in 2008 as well.
In January 2009, tragedy struck Sean’s family with the loss of his father and older brother. After Sean played for AAA Syracuse in 2010, he stepped away from playing the game knowing and trusting that God would place him where he could be most impactful. He joined staff with Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA), Baseball Division in Southern California. He coached collegiate players with the FCA So Cal Catch and then launched/coached the Catch high school and youth teams. Now, he serves as the FCA Canyon County Director in Idaho.
