TRACY HIGH SPORTS WELCOMES NEW VARSITY BASEBALL COACH
JaRell McIntyre (“Coach Mac”)
Coach Mac replaces four year Tracy High Coach Ted Muniz who stepped down at the conclusion of the 2024 season. Coach Mac comes to us with a strong resume of baseball having grown up in the Sacramento area as a star baseball player at Laguna Creek High in Elk Grove. “I attended the school when it first opened and graduated in 1998. I lettered in basketball and baseball at the school but received my highest achievements as a shortstop on the team becoming a strong offensive player.” JaRell would be drafted by the New York Yankees his senior year but choose to attend college first at the University of Nevada - Reno.
At Nevada JaRell was a starter at 3rd and 1st base and went on to play with some elite ball players in the Alaska Summer Baseball League. He would help lead his Nevada Reno team to the NCAA Regionals in 2000 at Stanford Stadium.
After college JaRell started his business endeavors with Pitney Bowes and then with Grainger. He moved to Tracy with his wife Adrienne in 2015 where he started his own business distributing industrial, office, and medical supplies. They have three children.
“Family and community are important to me. Tracy reminds me of what Elk Grove was like in the late 1990s when it began to explode with growth. We really like it here.”
What can we expect from Coach Mac? “I believe in playing the game the right way and with a focus on fundamentals. I know we have a lot of talented youth here, but I want to make sure we are providing them coaching in the fundamentals and how to be an all around team player. I want smart baseball players who understand the game and respect the team unit.”
“I’m big on respect. Does the player respect themselves; how do they carry themselves, are they a good classmate, do they respect their community, their teachers, parents, siblings, and guardians.”
“I believe the COVID years affected the players who are now attending High School, it impacted their developmental years of baseball. They missed out on critical reps, so I want to focus on filling that gap.”
Coach Mac will bring with him an understanding of the young student athlete and what they are experiencing in life. “I am a licensed minister and was a Young Adult leader at Well Christian Community Church in Livermore which is led by Pastor Napoleon Kaufman (formerly of the Raiders). “ I’ve been involved with this generation for a very long time, and I will encourage our student athletes to be positive young men and strive for their very best.”
When not working, Coach Mac loves to fish in the local Delta and is an avid reader.
“I look forward to setting up some meetings soon with the prospective players and doing interviews for our JV and Freshman coaching assignments.”
Friday, August 2, 2024
At the conclusion of the 2024 season, Coach Ted Muniz informed Athletic Director Matt Shrout of his decision to step aside as head baseball coach for Tracy High. Coach Muniz dedicated four years to the program serving two as Freshman coach and then two years as varsity head coach. “I’ve been involved in coaching for a long time and just felt it was the right time to step aside and give our A.D. plenty of time to find a replacement,” said Coach Muniz. "This decision allows me the opportunity to spend a lot more time with my family. I will forever be grateful for the support I had from the school, my fellow coaches, the players, the parents, and the community.”
