Knowing he had one of the deepest pools of athletic talent in the city, Vazquez set out to change the culture of the athletic department, beginning with school pride. A class of 2004 graduate, Vazquez attended Fresno State and excelled in the classroom and as a hammer thrower, finishing sixth in the NCAA Division I West Regional. He earned his degree in Kinesiology and teaching credentials then headed back home to the Salinas Valley.
