Winterburn's plan has always been to graduate players on time so they can pursue their life’s work, and utilize the sport of college baseball to help with life’s most important lessons. He is very proud of the long list of alums from the University of La Verne Baseball program.

“I’m proud of all of our alums, not just the ones who played for me. La Verne has always been a special place, and it certainly has been special for me. Our goal has been really consistent; promote an environment that is rich in talent and quality individuals, and to work really hard at the things that are in front of us,” said Coach Winterburn.
