Hall of Fame
For parts of four decades, Dr. Terry Glasgow was the driving force of Fighting Scots athletics, leading Monmouth to Midwest Conference championships in basketball and baseball.
In all, Glasgow coached 812 Monmouth victories – a record 469 in basketball and 343 in baseball – and led teams to 13 MWC titles, including nine in baseball. He went on an especially strong run starting in the late 1980s, taking teams to three consecutive NCAA basketball tournaments (1988-90) and sporting an 89-15 baseball record from 1989-92.
Glasgow coached basketball long enough – 35 years – that his career spanned from the old Waid Gymnasium to the Huff Athletic Center. He retired as one of Division III’s top 25 winningest coaches. His 21 years in the dugout ended before the Scots played at Peacock Park, but his impact was felt there, too: the ballpark is named Glasgow Field. As Monmouth’s longest-serving athletic director (1978-2008), “TG” was instrumental in developing all of the college’s modern athletic facilities.
