Hall of Fame
Few players in Monmouth College baseball history have dominated over a two-year stretch the way Dan Dunn did in 2005 and 2006.
Thanks in large part to a program-record four shutouts and a then-record 29 consecutive scoreless innings, Dunn’s ERA his first season with the Scots was a miniscule 1.66. He added two more shutouts in 2006, including a no-hitter, en route to making the NCAA’s All-Midwest Region squad and being named the Midwest Conference’s South Division Pitcher of the Year, the second of his two first-team All-South selections. His 78 strikeouts that year rank fifth on the Scots’ single-season list.
Monmouth won at least 20 games and the division title in both of his seasons and reached the MWC championship game in 2006. In all, Dunn had 23 starts for the Scots and posted 15 victories. Nearly two decades after throwing his last collegiate pitch, his career ERA of 2.14 was still the school record.
