Elected into the FSU Hall of Fame in 2019
Mike Martin will cap a 40-year head coaching career at Florida State in 2019 after announcing in June the upcoming season will be his last leading the Seminoles. Martin became the all-time winningest coach in college baseball history in 2018 and takes a 1,987-713-4 record into the 2019 campaign.

Martin and the Seminoles won 43 games in 2018, the 41st consecutive season FSU has won at least 40 games, by far the longest active streak in the country (the next closest school is Louisville, with seven).

Martin passed the late Augie Garrido (1,975) for the wins record with a 3-2, 13-inning win at No. 9 Clemson on May 5, 2018. FSU would also beat the Tigers in the ACC Tournament semifinals en route to a second-consecutive (eighth overall) ACC Championship.

Along with the most wins in college baseball, Martin also has the best winning percentage among active head coaches, sporting a .736 win percentage to go along with 16 trips to the College World Series.

Martin, a man whose uniform number – 11 – is universally substituted among FSU faithful, is a member of the Florida Sports Hall of Fame (inducted 2005), the American Baseball Coaches Association Hall of Fame (2007) and his home-state North Carolina Sports Hall of Fame (2018). Including five years as Florida State’s first full-time assistant coach from 1975-79 and two years as a player from 1965-66, Martin has been associated with Florida State for 47 of the program’s 72 seasons.

Of the 3,981 baseball games played in FSU history, Martin has been involved in 3,088 of those in some capacity. Even more impressively, he’s been on the field or in the dugout for 2,271 of the Seminoles’ 2,887 all-time victories.
