GREELEY, Colo. – Northern Colorado Baseball is excited to welcome two new additions to the program as Head Coach Mike Anderson announces the signings of Sam Skubic and Tobin Landen.
MEET THE SIGNEES
SAM SKUBIC – CATCHER/FIRST BASE – BOULDER, COLO. – BOULDER HS
A standout student-athlete at Boulder High School, Skubic earned Second Team All-State honors in baseball, First Team All-Conference recognition in golf and was named Baseball Team MVP and Teammate of the Year.
"Sam is a great fit for our program, both academically and athletically. His leadership skills are going to be a big advantage for him early as he transitions into Division I baseball" said Head Coach Mike Anderson.
One of Skubic's greatest sports moments came when he helped Boulder High School secure its first playoff victory in 25 years.
Skubic chose to attend the University of Northern Colorado because of the coaching staff's commitment to player development and the culture being built within the program. He plans to graduate in 2031 with a degree in Sports Administration.
Outside of baseball, Skubic enjoys playing golf, listening to country music and learning about history. Following his collegiate career, he hopes to use his education and relationships to become the best leader and version of himself.
TOBIN LANDEN – PITCHER – CHADRON, NEB. – CHADRON HS
A standout student-athlete at Chadron High School, Landen earned Panhandle Pitcher of the Year honors in 2026 and was named Co-Panhandle Defensive Player of the Year. In addition to baseball, he competed in football, basketball and golf.
One of Landen's greatest sports moments came during a home game against Sidney, where he recorded 17 strikeouts over six innings.
"We see a tremendous amount of upside for Tobin, both as a left-handed pitcher and as an athlete. As a quarterback on his football team in Chadron, he's an all-around athlete, and we have a strong feeling he will develop at the collegiate level. He's another great fit for our program academically and with character" stated Head Coach Mike Anderson.
Landen chose to attend Northern Colorado because he loved the coaching staff and felt UNC provided the best opportunity for him to continue developing as a student-athlete. He plans to graduate in 2031 with a degree in Kinesiology.
Outside of baseball, Landen enjoys playing pickleball and ping pong, cooking and playing card games. Following his collegiate career, he hopes to become a baseball coach at the college level.
