Jordon Twohig, a seasoned baseball strategist with two decades of coaching experience, has been elevated to the role of hitting coach and recruiting coordinator for the Hawai'i Rainbow Warriors.
A Proven Track Record of Success
Over a 20‑year career, Twohig has shaped programs at Charleston Southern, Saint Mary's, CSUN, and Washington, overseeing 56 MLB Draft selections and guiding Ohlone College to a 2010 state championship. His tenure at Charleston Southern culminated in the program's first top‑100 recruiting class, while his six‑year stretch at CSUN produced 120 victories from 2014 to 2017.
In his inaugural season with Hawai'i in 2026, Twohig's impact was immediate. The team's defense tightened under his guidance, with sophomore catcher Jake Redding allowing just one passed ball and surrendering 26 stolen bases, a testament to the coach's attention to detail behind the plate.
Offensive Surge and Defensive Excellence
The Rainbow Warriors' offense rebounded strongly in the second half of the season, batting .274 over the final 25 games. This resurgence coincided with a broader improvement in fundamentals, a trend that mirrors the defensive metrics that defined Twohig's earlier teams.
Future Prospects
Looking ahead, Twohig aims to continue refining talent pipelines and expanding the program's recruiting footprint. His blend of analytical insight and player development positions Hawai'i to remain competitive in the highly contested western region of college baseball.
