Eric Samulski

Assistant General Manager in Charge of Player Recruiting


Eric played four years of baseball for Head Coach Tim Scannell at Trinity University in San Antonio, Texas. He was part of the Tiger team that won SCAC Championships in 2004 and 2006. In both of those seasons, the Trinity Tigers came within two games from making the Division III Collegiate World Series. Samulski, who then also attended Trinity as a graduate student, joined the staff as an Asst. Coach and Recruiting Coordinator on the 2008 Trinity team that once again won the SCAC Championship and came within a game of the World Series after posting a 3-2 record in their regional tournament. Eric has an Bachelor of Arts in English and a Masters Degree in Education, but decided to "put his career on hold" as he traveled to Australia to play for the Golden Grove Dodgers in Division 1 of the South Australia Baseball League. He has also coached numerous youth select and traveling teams, as well as providing hitting instruction to youth baseball players both in the States and during his time in Australia. Eric was also an Asst. Coach for the Dutchmen last season, working under Head Coach Ryan Horning. Now that he has returned to the States, in addition to his position with the Dutchmen, Eric works in television & film production, event management, and has also been writing a collection of short stories and a screenplay or two.
