 The team originated in 1981, and was first called the San Mateo Condors 1981-1983. From 1984-2003- We were the San Mateo Bulldogs. Then the COA passed a rule that you couldn't have the same team colors, nickname & other similar identities so we changed our name to Coach Vagt's alma mater-University of Texas and became the Nor-Cal Longhorns. This team is made up mostly of players from the San Mateo County Community Colleges. In the last seven years, we had to recruit Division II & III & NAIA players in order to compete against the other Summer Collegiate teams we play. Menlo College has been our main source.

They "SHOCKED" the Lodi Grape Sox by Mikael Ryder 9-Innning pitching performance & the Horns winning 1-0 and causing League President to state in the Lodi Newspaper that " It's ridculous to lose to a NO-NAME TEAM that couldn't hold OUR JOCK".
