Boston University

A standout pitcher, Tim Masick is the first inductee to play only baseball at BU, with multi-sport Terrier legends such as Harry Agganis, Mickey Cochrane, Tom Gastall, Bruce Taylor and Herb Wakabayashi also dedicating time to football, basketball or hockey. A multi-sport athlete in high school, Masick turned down multiple overtures from professional baseball scouts so that he could pursue a college degree. He posted a combined 10-4 record on the mound to help the Terriers reach two NCAA tournaments his final two seasons.

After striking out 34 batters in 42 innings of work for a 2-2 record and a 1.93 ERA as a sophomore, Masick went 4-1 with a 0.90 ERA his junior season. He tallied 33 strikeouts in 48 innings and collected notable wins over Harvard, Boston College and Tufts to help the Terriers make their first NCAA appearance in 12 years. BU earned back-to-back NCAA berths for the first time in program history the following season, as he went 4-1 (2.52 ERA) with victories over BC and Northeastern. Named a Greater Boston League All-Star, he added a win over Dartmouth in the 1969 NCAA opener.
