Seven members were inducted into the Missouri State Sports Hall of Fame over the weekend, making them the 43rd class. The 2017 class included MSU pitching standout and now Miami Marlins relief pitcher Brad Ziegler.
Ziegler set MSU career records in strikeouts, wins, innings pitched, and games started in his four years as a Bears starting pitcher from 2000 to 2003.
“My time here was awesome,” Ziegler said. “We always had good teams, and that made it a lot more fun. Not only were we good on the field, but also guys enjoyed hanging out together, and were pretty close off the field too.
