Hall of Fame
A mainstay at the top of the lineup, David Beckley was a valuable member of The Citadel's baseball team from 1993-96, starting an impressive 232 games during his career. In 1994, he helped lead the team to a Southern Conference Championship, and the following year, he played a crucial role in securing both the regular season and tournament championships. Beckley's exceptional performance earned him a well-deserved spot on the All-Southern Conference Tournament team in 1995.
Upon graduation, Beckley successfully coached high school before returning to The Citadel as an assistant coach under head coach Fred Jordan. He spent 17 years on the staff, including his last 11 years as associate head coach and recruiting coordinator.
He still ranks in the Top 10 in stolen bases (103), triples (14), games played (236), runs (198), walks (127), and at-bats (875) in the program's history
