For two years as a player and four years as a coach, Woody Woodward led the Florida State baseball team. The young athlete from Coral Gables led FSU at the plate in '62 with a .365 average. The
following season the Tribe shortstop was chosen third team All-American and was named to the College World Series all tournament squad. From 1962 to 1971 Woody played 880 games for the National League
Braves and Reds. After retirement as a professional he returned to Tallahassee, coaching FSU from 1975 to 1978. In that span his teams won 75 percent of their games, the highest winning percentage of
any Seminole baseball coach. Three of Woodward's teams got NCAA bids, with his '75 nine going on to the College World Series. In '78 Woodward returned to the Reds organization which he now serves as
assistant general manager. Woodward's donation of lights for Seminole Field is indicative of his deep devotion to his alma mater. On diamonds and in dugouts across the nation, Woody Woodward has well
represented Florida State.
