Andrew Neal Stankiewicz (born August 10, 1964) is the head coach of the USC Trojans baseball team in Los Angeles and is a former Major League Baseball middle-infielder.
Stankiewicz had a seven-year MLB playing career spanning four clubs and 429 appearances. He was drafted by the New York Yankees in the 1986 draft and went on to make his MLB debut with the club in 1992. He also played for the Houston Astros and Montreal Expos before closing out his career with the Arizona Diamondbacks in 1998.[1]
Following his playing career, Stankiewicz worked in the Yankees organization including serving as the manager of the Staten Island Yankees in 2003 and 2005, a roving infield instructor in 2004,[2] and as a scout in 2006.[3] He led Staten Island, the Yankees' Class A affiliate, to the 2005 NY-Penn League Championship.[citation needed]
He got his first taste of college coaching with a three-year stint as an assistant coach at Arizona State under Pat Murphy,[4] making a pair of College World Series appearances in 2007 and 2009.[5]
Stankiewicz also served as the minor league field coordinator for the Seattle Mariners from 2009 to 2012[6] before taking the head coaching job at Grand Canyon.[7]
In an 11-year stint as the head coach at Grand Canyon, he inherited an NCAA Division II program and guided it through a transition to Division I where it stood as one of the nation's top mid-major programs[8] with five Western Athletic Conference regular-season championships[9] and multiple appearances in the nation's top-25 rankings.[10]
Stankiewicz went to St. Paul High School in Santa Fe Springs, California.[11] He is an alumnus of Pepperdine University, where he was a standout for the Waves baseball program and graduated in 1986 with a degree in sociology. He ranks in the top 10 in several Pepperdine career batting categories, and is third on the school's all-time list in stolen bases (101).[12]
