Randy Winn, Santa Clara University
A two-sport athlete, Santa Clara’s Randy Winn proudly donned the red and white as a member of the Broncos’ men’s basketball and baseball teams from 1992 to 1995. Winn was a member of the 1992-93 Santa Clara basketball team which defeated the number two seeded Arizona Wildcats in the first round of the NCAA Tournament. As an outfielder for the Santa Clara baseball team, Winn helped guide the 1994 Broncos to the program’s ninth NCAA tournament appearance with a 40-20 overall record and a first place finish in the West Coast Conference with a mark of 21-9. In his best season with the Broncos, Winn batted .294 with 30 steals in 35 attempts as an All West Coast Conference outfielder in 1995. An excellent base runner, Winn’s 30 steals ranks third on the all-time single season steals list for Santa Clara.
