Ryan Dupic on building championship culture

Bio

Formerly Buena Vista University's associate head coach/pitching coach, Ryan Dupic was named Concordia University Head Baseball Coach prior to the 2015 season. He just completed his seventh season as head coach in 2021.

Dupic has made an immediate positive impact, leading the program to its winningest seven-year stretch in program history. The 2021 season continued the upward trajectory of the program as the Bulldogs advanced to the NAIA World Series for the first time ever. Not only that, Concordia broke school single-season records for wins, home runs, runs scored , hits and pitcher strikeouts . As part of the greatest season in program history, Dupic's squad won the Bellevue Bracket of the NAIA National Championship Opening Round and swept GPAC regular season and postseason championships.

Prior to Dupic's arrival in Seward, the program had not produced a winning season since 1979. Concordia's most recent conference baseball title had come in 1986. Under Dupic, the Bulldogs reset the school single-season wins standard three years in a row (2015 through 2017 and again in 2021

So on the show we spend a bulk of our time on changing behavior and culture, but we also go over increasing leadership opportunities with players and coaching staff alignment,

Here’s my conversation with Ryan Dupic!
