2006

Andy Tracy, a native of Bowling Green, Ohio, is the top home-run hitter in BGSU baseball history, with 45 in his career, as of the 2011 season. An All-MAC and All-Mideast Region First-Team selection as a senior in 1996, he led the MAC and finished ninth in the nation in slugging percentage that spring (.777), while ranking among the conference leaders in virtually every offensive category. A four-year starter on the diamond, Tracy started his career with a bang, being named the MAC’s Freshman of the Year in 1993. He was an all-league honorable-mention choice as both a freshman and a sophomore. As a junior in ’95, he tied the school
seasonal record with 15 homers, including four in a seven-inning contest vs. Wright State. Primarily a third baseman, Tracy also pitched in each of his four years at BG. Additionally, Tracy was a four-year letterwinner in football, earning all-league honorable mention as a senior punter in 1995. That fall, he averaged 41.7 yards per kick to rank third in the MAC. Tracy finished his gridiron career with an average of 40.4 yards per boot. He has played professional baseball since leaving BGSU, and is with the Reno Aces, the AAA affiliate of the Arizona Diamondbacks, for the 2011 season.
