HALL OF HONOR
Red O’Hora was honored for his 23 years (1950-1972) as head coach of the Red Raider baseball program. During his tenure his squads compiled a 238-198-4 record, including three trips to the NCAA District playoffs and once in 1955, to the NCAA World Series in Omaha. O’Hora, a graduate of Penn State University, came to Colgate in 1948 as an assistant coach and became head baseball coach a year later. He served for several years as freshman football and basketball coach before relinquishing those duties in the early ‘60s. As an undergraduate at Penn State, O’Hora was a three-year starter for the Nittany Lions nine and led the nation in hitting with a .502 average.
