STILLWATER – Former Oklahoma State baseball standout Dave Sullivan passed away Thursday night at the age of 60 after a battle with cancer.
A native of Tucson, Ariz., Sullivan was a catcher and three-year letterwinner for head coach Gary Ward's Cowboys from 1978-80. He played in 146 games during his OSU career and was a .311 hitter who recorded 17 home runs and 112 RBIs.
Sullivan played for Ward on Yavapai College's JUCO national champion team as freshman in 1977 before following his coach to Stillwater, where he was named All-Big Eight Second Team catcher as a junior in 1979 after leading OSU with a .353 batting average.
A four-time Major League Baseball Draft pick, Sullivan was a first-round selection twice in 1977 and was selected in the 17th round of the 1979 draft. He was an 11th-round selection of the Houston Astros following his senior season in 1980 and played two minor league seasons.
Funeral services for Sullivan will be held Wednesday, Jan. 9 at noon at Surrey Hills Baptist Church in Yukon, Okla. More details can be found here.
