Hall of Fame
Chip Stratton was, and still is, one of the greatest home run hitters in school history.
A two-year star for the Cowboys in 1987 and 1988, Stratton was named the Southland Conference's Player of the Year in 1988 after he belted out a then-school record 17 home runs to go along with a .341 batting average.
He earned all-SLC honors in both seasons and played a big part in the Cowboys winning their first-ever conference championship in 1988 while making their first NCAA Regional appearance where the Cowboys went 1-2 at the Oklahoma State site.
Stratton's 30 career home runs was a school record for seven years until it was broken in 1995, and is still ranked No. 6 on the chart while his 17 dingers in 1988 ranks as the third-most in a single-season in school history. His 58 RBIs that same season is ranked as the eighth-most in a season and was a school record for 10 years until Ben Broussard broke it in 1998.
