I was stunned to discover my local institution, East Stroudsburg University, has actually claimed three major leaguers. Joel Bennett Mike O'Neill Harry Schaeffer
sfaJack Posted August 23, 2004 Report Posted August 23, 2004 My college has produced zero major leaguers. Yeah, baby.
Alro Posted August 23, 2004 Report Posted August 23, 2004 Georgetown College has produced 3 major league players, the most recent of which played one season in 1963. I'm not that surprised, since it is an NAIA school.
strummer Posted August 23, 2004 Report Posted August 23, 2004 Siena College, Loudonville, New York. I can't believe there have been 3 major league players that went to Siena! We're a basketball school. (and we have never had an NBA player) Tim Christman Billy Harrell Gary Holle
DerangedHermit Posted August 23, 2004 Report Posted August 23, 2004 SUNY Stony Brook has only produced one major leaguer: Joe Nathan. Here it is.
HarleyQuinn Posted August 23, 2004 Report Posted August 23, 2004 None, but we're a Division III baseball team so that's probably why.
The Man in Blak Posted August 23, 2004 Report Posted August 23, 2004 Wow. My school is a Division III baseball university, but we've got 10 players, most of them from the 40's and 50's: Bill Beckmann Warren Gill Bill Jennings Kurt Krieger Dal Maxvill (Gold Glove SS in 1968) Paul Meloan Lloyd Merritt Hank Schmulbach Doc Shanley John Stoneham
Fökai Posted August 23, 2004 Report Posted August 23, 2004 Not a single player from my school, but the schools in Oregon have produced Scott Brosius and Tom Lampkin, to mention the notables. The hometown deal is a different story, though: Danny Ainge Scott Brosius Alan Embree Dave Kingman Dale Murphy HAROLD REYNOLDS~ Aaron Rowand Richie Sexson As for Hawaii, my home state, we've produced: Benny Agbayani Ron Darling Sid Fernandez Charlie Hough Justin Wayne Jerome Williams
Bruiser Chong Posted August 23, 2004 Report Posted August 23, 2004 I go to a community college so no go for me. Even then, there's only been one guy to come out of the University in town and I've never heard of him. Matter of fact, the only people to even come out of Michigan that I've actually heard of are Paul Assenmacher, Kevin Tapani, Curt Young (who went to my high school), Dave Campbell and John Vander Wal. The only notables are Kirk Gibson, Mark Mulder, Steve Garvey and Barry Larkin.
Guest Evolution Posted August 23, 2004 Report Posted August 23, 2004 The only real notables that my college has produced would be Jim Sundberg and Mike Boddicker, but the schools in my current home state have produced people like Hall of Famer Red Faber.
2GOLD Posted August 23, 2004 Report Posted August 23, 2004 Delaware Tech has had more players drafted than Delaware has and yet it's not listed. That's just rude.
EVIL~! alkeiper Posted August 23, 2004 Author Report Posted August 23, 2004 Have those players reached the majors? And if you do know specific players from Delaware Tech who have reached the majors, ship them an e-mail. It's a work in progress, and they will welcome additions/corrections to their data.
Hektik Posted August 23, 2004 Report Posted August 23, 2004 San Diego State University has produced 32 major league players. Most notably, SDSU has produced Tony Gwynn, Mark Grace, and Graig Nettles.

And if you do know specific players from Delaware Tech who have reached the majors, ship them an e-mail. It's a work in progress, and they will welcome additions/corrections to their data. I'll have to track down the exact list. I know a few made it but didn't stay up do to roster size and lack of playing time. Mostly the Phillies, Mets and SD draft the players out of DT. I know it was over 9 players though, but it's going to take me a little research.
the pinjockey Posted August 23, 2004 Report Posted August 23, 2004 Rowan University: Jeff Datz Rick Lancellotti Rowan's claim to fame is a Crash Davis. Whoopdeedo. Knew I should have gone to Seton Hall: Craig Biggio Matt Morris Mo Vaughn John Valentin
geniusMoment Posted August 23, 2004 Report Posted August 23, 2004 University of Cincy has 16, the best being Sandy Fucking Koufax. There were actually more MLB players from my high school team, and better ones, including Ken Griffey Jr. and Barry Larkin.
Guest Staravenger Posted August 23, 2004 Report Posted August 23, 2004 SUNY Stony Brook has only produced one major leaguer: Joe Nathan. Here it is. What part of New York is Stony Brook? I'm fairly certain my local paper at the time made a big deal out of Joh Nathans debut because he was somewhat of a hometown guy.
Slayer Posted August 23, 2004 Report Posted August 23, 2004 Wichita State University - 27, more than any other Kansas school Notables: '93 WS hero Joe Carter Indians manager Eric Wedge "Mr. Glass" Darren Dreifort Braden Looper Doug Mirabelli All are in the WSU Sports HoF as well
Stephen Joseph Posted August 23, 2004 Report Posted August 23, 2004 Georgia Tech~! We smoke you all ... http://www.baseball-reference.com/schools/gatech.shtml Notable Highlights: Kevin Brown Jason Varitek Nomar Garciaparra Jay Payton Del Pratt

nogoodnick Posted August 23, 2004 Report Posted August 23, 2004 My school doesn't have a baseball team.
Guest MikeSC Posted August 23, 2004 Report Posted August 23, 2004 32 for U. of S. Carolina --- odd, cause we were pretty damned bad until the past 4 or 5 years (when we tended to kick all kinds of ass). Adam Everett (SS Astros) is probably our best player in the majors right now. -=Mike
Guest Anglesault Posted August 23, 2004 Report Posted August 23, 2004 Along with the usual collection of misfits and losers, Albert Belle, Kurt Ainsworth and Curtis Leskanic. ... Along with the usual collection of misfits and losers, Albert Belle.
DerangedHermit Posted August 24, 2004 Report Posted August 24, 2004 SUNY Stony Brook has only produced one major leaguer: Joe Nathan. Here it is. What part of New York is Stony Brook? Long Island. Stony Brook is about 50-ish miles east of New York City. Ah yes..........I also forgot D-Backs prospect Craig Ansman graduated from Stony Brook.
King Kamala Posted August 24, 2004 Report Posted August 24, 2004 Not in college yet, but my older brother's school (University of Southern Maine) produced one major leaguer, a guy named Mike Welch who pitched a couple of innings for the Phillies in 1998.
Mole Posted August 24, 2004 Report Posted August 24, 2004 SUNY Stony Brook has only produced one major leaguer: Joe Nathan. Here it is. What part of New York is Stony Brook? Long Island. Stony Brook is about 50-ish miles east of New York City. Ah yes..........I also forgot D-Backs prospect Craig Ansman graduated from Stony Brook. And about 40 mins away from my school, Southampton College, which doesn't even have a baseball team. Yeah, we suck.
B. Brian Brunzell Posted August 24, 2004 Report Posted August 24, 2004 The only notable MLBer from West Liberty State College is Joe Niekro.
Guest Anglesault Posted August 24, 2004 Report Posted August 24, 2004 The only notable MLBer from West Liberty State College is Joe Niekro. Heh, not even the good Niekro. Well, okay, he was good, but you know what i mean.
