JUNE 17, 2025 — After leading UTSA Baseball to its best season in program history, Pat Hallmark has agreed to a contract extension that will keep him as head coach of the Roadrunners through at least the 2029 season, Vice President for Intercollegiate Athletics Lisa Campos announced Tuesday. The new deal is pending the approval of the UT System.
The extension, which runs through May 31, 2029, will pay Hallmark a base salary of $350,000 for the 2025-26 year with $25,000 annual increases, culminating in a $425,000 salary in the final year of the deal in 2028-29.
“I am excited to remain in San Antonio. I’m very thankful to Dr. Campos and Dr. Eighmy, and appreciate their support of UTSA Baseball,” Hallmark said. “Their hard work has been instrumental in my decision to stay here and, again, I am grateful for that and for the opportunity to continue building UTSA Baseball.”
In six seasons at the helm of the UTSA program, Hallmark has a record of 187–111, and has led the Roadrunners to four consecutive 30-plus-win seasons, which tied a program record. His career record is 253–159.
“Coach Hallmark has built the UTSA Baseball program into a consistent winner with a strong championship culture,” Campos said. “I am delighted to announce the extension of Coach Hallmark’s contract. He has taken our program to extraordinary new heights and has developed his student-athletes into great representatives of UTSA and the San Antonio community both on and off the field. I am looking forward to him remaining our coach for a long time.”
Hallmark, the 2025 American Athletic Conference Coach of the Year, led this year’s Roadrunners to their first-ever NCAA Regional Championship and first NCAA Super Regional appearance, posting a program-best 47 wins and a program-low 15 losses. He also directed the team to its third-ever conference regular-season championship with a 23–4 mark in The American.
The 2025 Roadrunners tore up the record book as they recorded program records in runs (530), RBI (488), on-base percentage (.423), fewest errors (47), fielding percentage (.978), at-bats (2,098) and hit by pitches (125).
Hallmark was named UTSA’s head coach on June 16, 2019.
