The GS grad said his experiences playing baseball under legendary coach Jack Stallings were some of his greatest memories, aside from meeting his wife on campus, who was a GS swimmer.
For Van Tassell, the memories off the field were as important as the accomplishments on the field.
“Even though [every athlete] can remember every pitch and every play, we can remember our relationships, the players, teammates, and then the University that permitted all of that to happen,” Van Tassell said.
