Hall of Fame
In 2003, as Monmouth won its third straight Midwest Conference South Division baseball title, the Fighting Scots had the South’s Player of the Year and its Pitcher of the Year. One player earned both those honors – Beau Hellman.
Hellman batted .313 and starred on the mound, posting a 6-1 record and a 2.11 ERA. For that extraordinary double duty, he earned an All-Midwest Region selection.
The versatile Hellman’s biggest contributions to Monmouth’s diamond success came the year before, as he helped the Scots to within one win of the College World Series. He posted a career-best .895 OPS to go with team highs of 46 hits and 33 runs.
Hellman was a first-team All-South pick every year, bookended by selections as a pitcher his freshman and senior seasons. He was also honored as a shortstop and second baseman. At the time of his induction, Hellman was in the Scots’ career top 10 for runs, assists, games and at-bats.
