He set school records for career wins (25) and winning percentage (.803), as well as for wins in one season (10). As a senior, he went 10-1 with a 2.05 ERA and led Pomona-Pitzer to its first Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference championship since 1955.

Einsiedler was chosen as a second-team All-American after his senior season and was a three-time all-SCIAC selection.
