    RODRRODOD DEDEAUXDDEDEAUXEDEAUX ˨˨ THETTHEHE ARCHITECTAARCHITECTRCHITECT OOFOFF UUSCUSCSC BBASEBALLBASEBALLASEBALL On January 5, 2006, the USC baseball program suff ered the loss of Rod Dedeaux, one of the greatest college coaches ever, who passed away at the age of 91. Not only was Dedeaux the main architect for the success of the USC baseball program, but also one of the great ambassadors for college baseball and amateur baseball in international competition. In his 45-year tenure at USC (1942-86), Dedeaux led the Trojans to 11 national championships and 28 conference titles. He posted an overall record of 1,332-571-11 for a superb .699 winning percentage. At his retirement, he had won more games than any other college baseball coach (he currently ranks seventh among Division I coaches). His teams from 1970-74 won fi ve straight NCAA championships, a record that may never be broken. No other school has won more than two in a row. Two personal honors for Dedeaux, which are quite fi tting considering his accomplishments, came in 1999 when he was named “Coach of the Century” by both Baseball America and Collegiate Baseball. As part of the 50th anniversary of the College World Series in 1996, Dedeaux was named the head coach of the All-Time CWS team by a panel of former World Series coaches, media and college baseball offi cials. In 1999, he was presented with keys to the city of Omaha (home to the College World Series). Dedeaux was named Coach of the Year six times by the American Baseball Coaches Association and was inducted into the organization’s Hall of Fame in 1970.

Stanford has consistently been at the forefront of the collegiate baseball scene since the school began playing the sport in 1892. The program’s two College World Series titles (1987 and 1988) and 16 trips to Omaha have been accompanied by 28 appearances in the NCAA Tournament, 15 Regional crowns, six Super Regional titles (in seven tries) and 20 conference championships. Long synonymous with winning, Stanford is fifth in NCAA Division I history with 2,559 all-time victories.

    About the University Stanford University n October 1, 1891, the 465 new students who were on Ohand for opening day ceremonies at Leland Stanford Junior University greeted Leland and Jane Stanford enthusi- astically, with a chant they had made up and rehearsed only that morning. Wah-hoo! Wah-hoo! L-S-J-U! Stanford! Its wild and spirited tone symbolized the excitement of this bold adventure. As a pioneer faculty member recalled, “Hope was in every heart, and the presiding spirit of freedom prompted us to dare greatly.” For the Stanford’s on that day, the university was the real- ization of a dream and a fitting tribute to the memory of their only son, who had died of typhoid fever weeks before his sixteenth birthday. Far from the nation’s center of culture and unencumbered by tradition or ivy, the new university Millions of volumes are housed in many libraries throughout the campus. drew students from all over the country: many from California; some who followed professors hired from other colleges and universities; and some simply seeking adventure in the West. Though there were many difficulties during the first months – housing was inadequate, microscopes and books were late in arriving from the East – the first year fore- told greatness. As Jane Stanford wrote in the summer of Stanford University 1892, “Even our fondest hopes have been realized.” The University at a Glance 182 2006 STANFORD FOOTBALL About the University Stanford University Ideas of “Practical Education” Stanford People Governor and Mrs. Stanford had come from families of By any measure, Stanford’s faculty – which numbers modest means and had built their way up through a life of approximately 1,700 – is one of the most distinguished in hard work.

    LINE DRIVES THE NATIONAL COLLEGIATE BASEBALL WRITERS NEWSLETTER (Volume 45, No. 1, Jan. 24, 2006) The President’s Message By NCBWA President Todd Lamb NCBWA Membership: The prognosticators have made their preseason picks. The preseason polls have been announced. The preseason All- America teams are out. A majority of the preseason watch lists have been distributed. Every team has high expectations and goals for the season. Now it is time to play ball. Obviously, the calendar has changed since the last NCBWA newsletter, but now it is finally time to wish followers of college baseball a Happy New Year! It seems a little soon to be writing that – at least from Columbus, Ohio – but this weekend opens the 2006 college baseball season. Granted, not many schools will be taking to the field, but there are a few; all before Ohio State, and many other schools around the country, begins practice. The Buckeyes take to the indoor practice turf of the Woody Hayes Athletics Center Monday. Kudos to the NCAA. The organization’s board of directors approved a uniform start date for college baseball beginning with the 2008 season. The legislation stipulates the season start the Friday that falls 13 weeks before the selection of the NCAA tournament field, which the last few years has been Memorial Day. That means this season would not begin until Friday, Feb. 24. Coincidentally, that is the same day Ohio State opens its season against Wake Forest in a tournament at the University of Florida. In 2008, opening day for all of college baseball will be Feb.
