In the autumn of 1905, he entered Fordham University, then St. John’s College, at Rose Hill. In his first college football game against Rutgers, he scored three touchdowns. Jack went on to win eight varsity letters for the University, four each in baseball and football. During and after college, he played professional baseball over 16 seasons alongside such teammates as Babe Ruth and Ty Cobb. He also found the time to serve as a high school football coach for Fordham Prep, then the Second Division, leading the 1910 team to an undefeated season. Coffey’s devotion to Fordham University covered several decades, and he made his mark by serving the school as head baseball coach, freshman football coach and general manager of athletics. In 1954, he was elected to the College Baseball Hall of Fame, and the University named its main athletic field in his honor. In 1971, Coffey was an inaugural inductee into the Fordham University Athletics Hall of Fame alongside Vince Lombardi and Frankie Frisch. Jack Coffey passed away in 1966.

After high school, Corcoran was a walk-on freshman for the Fordham University football team and finished as a four year starter at defensive back and team captain for the Rams his senior year. Following his final season, he played for the West Virginia Rockets in the American Football Association and later received an invitation to tryout with the Dallas Cowboys. After college, Corcoran enjoyed a 20-year international rugby career. He played all over the world, from Ireland to Australia, England to New Zealand and Canada to Argentina and Uruguay. Highlights include his 1989 and 1990 selections to the U.S.A. National Team, the Eagles. In 1992, Brian was inducted into the Fordham University Athletics Hall of Fame for both football and rugby.

In 1987, Deane was a Catholic High School Football League 1987 First Team All-League selection. He was also selected to represent Fordham Prep at the 1987 Senior Bowl. After high school, Deane was a four-year varsity letterman for Pace University, again playing both defensive back and wide receiver.

  • "Electric October" by Kevin Cook
    John Kosner Home World U.S. Politics Economy Business Tech Markets Opinion Life & Arts Real Estate WSJ. Magazine Search BOOKS | BOOKSHELF SHARE FACEBOOKThe Salt of the Diamond TWITTERA look back at the 1947 World Series—in which Joe DiMaggio and Jackie Robinson played—focusing on six of its unsung heroes. Edward Kosner reviews ‘Electric October’ by Kevin Cook. EMAIL PERMALINK PHOTO: BETTMANN ARCHIVE By Edward Kosner Sept. 28, 2017 6:33 pm ET SAVE PRINT TEXT 7 Of all sports, baseball lives the most in its past. Those meticulous statistics help, of course. And the fact that, over the years, the game has attracted more gifted writers than any other, from Ring Lardner to John Updike, Robert Coover and Philip Roth. Random baseball moments—not just epic coups like Bobby Thomson’s 1951 “miracle” home run—persist in memory long after they should have evanesced. Kevin Cook’s heartfelt and entertaining “Electric October” is ostensibly about the 1947 World Series between Joe DiMaggio’s Yankees and the Dodgers of Jackie Robinson, Pee Wee Reese and Dixie Walker. The book is really about the lost drama and culture of mid- 20th-century baseball still embedded in the minds of old-timers. A onetime editor at Sports Illustrated, Mr. Cook doesn’t focus on the stars DiMaggio and Robinson. Instead he tells the stories of two baseball lifers—the Yankee manager Bucky Harris and the Dodger skipper Burt Shotton—and four bit players: Yankee journeyman pitcher Bill Bevens and Dodgers pinch hitter Cookie Lavagetto, who broke up Bevens’s no- RECOMMENDED VIDEOS hitter in game four; Al Gionfriddo, a diminutive scrub who kept Brooklyn in the series with NYC Sets Up Traveler- a sensational catch in game six; and George (Snuffy) Stirnweiss, a Yankee infielder who was 1.

This season, UNI baseball opens its lOOth season with 952 wins all-time. (No baseball team was fielded in 1903-04, 1909-10 and 1943-45.) Originally begun when the school was known as Iowa State Normal School, the baseball team has represented the school when it was also known as Iowa State Teachers College and the State College of Iowa before assuming its present title in 1967. Starting in the years with Captain Avery as coach of the first two squads, the Panthers have built a program that thrives on hard­ working young men dedicated to being the best they can be on the diamond and in the classroom. Last year was no exception, as five Panthers; Ryan McGuire, Kevin Briggeman, Greg Woodin, Scott Sobkowiak and Aaron Houdeshell were named academic all-MVC by the sports information directors of the league.

Box 6507 Phone: 806-742-0301 x249 Lubbock TX 79493-6507 E-mail: [email protected] January 30, 2008 Boyd, Thank you for participating in the balloting for the College Baseball Hall of Fame’s 2008 Induction Class. We appreciate your willingness to help. In the voters packet you will find the official ballot, an example ballot, and the nominee biographies: 1. The official ballot is what you return to us. Please return to us no later than Mon- day, February 11. 2. The example ballot’s purpose is to demonstrate the balloting rules. Obviously the names on the example ballot are not the nominee names. That was done to prevent you from being biased by the rankings you see there. 3. Each nominee has a profile in the biography packet. Some are more detailed than others and reflect what we received from the institutions and/or obtained in our own research. The ballot instructions are somewhat detailed, so be sure to read the directions at the top of the official ballot. Use the example ballot as a reference. Please try to consider the nominees based on their collegiate careers. In many cases nominees have gone on to professional careers but keep the focus on his college career as a player and/or coach. The Veterans (pre-1947) nominees often lack biographical details relative to those in the post-1947 categories. In those cases, the criteria may take on a broader spectrum to include the impact they had on the game/history of college baseball, etc.

  • Moglia Steps Down and Gives the Reins to Chadwell CCU Executes Succession Plan for the Football Program
    Coastal Carolina Moglia Steps Down and Gives the Reins to Chadwell CCU executes succession plan for the football program From Joe Moglia: To my players and staff, family and friends, and all of you who have been part of Coastal Carolina football, I can’t thank you enough for all the love, support and dedication that you have given to me, my family and the Coastal Carolina football family over the last seven years. I wish I had the opportunity to speak with so many of you before this announcement, but it just wasn’t possible. The 2018 season was my 25th as a football coach and I am proud and grateful for the career I’ve had, especially the last six and seven years as part of Coastal. I have decided to step down as the head coach of the football program and, as part of the succession plan that I, President David A. DeCenzo and Director of Athletics Matt Hogue believe is best for the program, to turn that responsibility over to Jamey Chadwell. Let me explain why. While we were all disappointed in the latter part of last season, we still exceeded the expectations of what anyone predicted in the preseason. Our 2018 team was one of the youngest in the nation, we had a significant scholarship deficit to our competition, and we had six new coaches working together for the first time. In the 2019 season, we’ll still be young, but far more experienced. We will be much closer to 80 scholarships, and our staff has experience working together as a whole.
