James Madison Hall of Fame baseball coach Brad Babcock, who amassed a program-record 558 wins in 19 seasons and guided the Dukes to the 1983 College World Series, passed away on Tuesday at age 81. Babcock was inducted into the JMU Athletics Hall of Fame in 1998 after a 558-249-4 career record, and the 1983 squad became the second team inducted in department history in 2016. Brad Babcock is a true JMU legend, both in his role as baseball head coach and as a long-time administrator, Director of Athletics Jeff Bourne said. He built JMU baseball to one of the pre-eminent programs in the CAA and the region with a blueprint for success that remains today. As baseball coach, Babcock took the Dukes from a fledgling second-year program in 1971 to being one of the more highly-respected programs in the East.
