Incaviglia Inducted Into College Baseball Hall Of Fame
July 05, 2007 | Cowboy Baseball
LUBBOCK, Texas — Former Oklahoma State star Pete Incaviglia became the second Cowboy to be inducted into the College Baseball Hall of Fame during ceremonies at the Lubbock Convention Center on Wednesday.
Due to a family emergency, Incaviglia, who played at OSU from 1983-85, was unable to join the rest of the Class of 2007 in Lubbock, but Brad Walker of the OSU Foundation was there on Incaviglia's behalf.
“On behalf of the Oklahoma State Cowboys' extended family, we want to accept this honor for Pete,” Walker said. “Pete put college baseball into the regional and national television spotlight at a time when ESPN and the regional networks were expanding their coverage. His NCAA record of 100 career home runs still stands, and there are life-sized busts of both Oklahoma State Hall of Fame inductees, Robin Ventura and Pete Incaviglia, outside of Allie P. Reynolds Stadium on campus.”
A native of Pebble Beach, Calif., Incaviglia enjoyed one of the most remarkable careers in the history of college baseball during a three-year career in Stillwater that earned him status as college baseball's Player of the Century from Baseball America in 1999.
The most recognized power hitter in Oklahoma State and NCAA baseball history, “Inky” recorded the most impressive offensive season in NCAA history as a junior in 1985. During that season, he set NCAA single-season records for home runs (48), RBI (143), total bases (285) and slugging percentage (1.140). He also led the Cowboys in batting average at .464.
Incaviglia produced eye-popping offensive numbers throughout his OSU career. As a sophomore, he hit .352 with 29 homers and 103 RBI. He set NCAA career records for home runs (100) and slugging percentage (.915), and he holds the Big Eight Conference career records for RBI (324) and total bases (635).
An outfielder, Incaviglia was named first-team All-America in 1984 and 1985 by the American Baseball Coaches Association, The Sporting News and Baseball America. He was also named first-team All-Big Eight in '84 and '85 and is one of only two players ever voted the Most Valuable Player of the Big Eight Tournament twice (1984-85).
