Entering the 2026 season, Coach Ricky Meza will be entrusted to continue molding our pitchers into strong competitors on and off the field. Younger brother of program head coach, Brad Meza, Ricky began his coaching career three seasons ago as the assistant to the JV League Champion team at VHS. His high upside and enthusiasm for teaching young pitchers how to compete is greatly appreciated. His communication skills with the young players is unmatched.

  “The former L.A. Mission College pitcher brings an infectious energy to the 2026 Hawks pitching staff,” said Coach Meza. “The work that Coach Ricky has put in this offseason with the pitching staff is sure to be showcased in the 2026 campaign. The task of preparing players for a long season is not an easy task, but we are sure that the work Ricky puts in will lead them to the next level.”

  Ricky is continuing his schooling through Grand Canyon University with aspirations in the journalism field. Ricky has also shown an interest in continuing with a career as a coach. He is a well-respected young coach in our program and we are lucky to have him for the time that we do.
