Don Sneddon HOF

Don Sneddon to be Inducted into Athletics Hall of Fame

FULLERTON, Calif. – Cal State Fullerton Athletics will induct the 2025 Hall of Fame Class on Thursday, Nov. 6 at the Embassy Suites in Brea. Leading up to the event we will unveil each of our prestigious honorees on FullertonTitans.com. Today we honor Don Sneddon from the baseball program. 

Sneddon spent two years as a player at Cal State Fullerton in 1973 and 1974 after transferring from Cerritos College. Sneddon led the Titans to a California Collegiate Athletics Association championship in 1974 and was the first NCAA Div. II All-American in school history. Following his graduation, Sneddon joined Augie Garrido's coaching staff at Fullerton as an assistant in 1975 and spent two seasons with the Titans before moving to Santa Ana College. Sneddon became an assistant for then-head coach Jim Reach at Santa Ana, before taking over the program in 1981. 

Sneddon spent 32 years as the head coach at Santa Ana College, where he became the all-time winningest coach in California community college baseball history. Sneddon finished with a career record of 1,072-383-3 (.735), and among those 1,072 victories are three state championships (1993, 1995, 1996) and 16 conference championships. Sneddon also led the Dons to the second round of postseason competition for 25 consecutive seasons from 1988-2012. His teams never finished with a losing record, and in 22 of his 32 seasons, had a winning percentage of .700 or higher. He was named conference coach of the year 16 times, including five-straight seasons from 2007-2011. After breaking the career wins record in 2006 with his 832nd victory, Sneddon went on to become the first coach to record 900 and 1,000 wins. 

Following his retirement from Santa Ana in 2014, Sneddon was inducted into the California Community College Baseball Coaches Association Hall of Fame in 2015. Sneddon was inducted into the ABCA Hall of Fame in 2020 alongside George Horton.
