EASON EARNS 600TH CAREER VICTORY
PCC Head Baseball Coach Tommy Eason recorded a landmark 600th career victory last night in a 16-4 victory over Lenoir CC.
"600 career wins is a tremendous milestone and we are so excited for Coach Eason. The success he has achieved over his career is a reflection of the leadership and sportsmanship he exemplifies on and off the field each day. We are fortunate that he is a part of our team and that he continues to make a positive impact in the lives of our student-athletes." - Athletic Director Dawn Manning
This season marks Eason's 20th year as Head Coach of the Bulldogs. Over that time he has recorded a career record of 600-295 and has led PCC to 5 Region 10 Titles. Eason also has led Pitt to two NJCAA World Series appearances, once in 2010 (NJCAA DI) and again in 2017 (NJCAA DII).
During his tenure, Eason has coached several All-Americans including outfielder Houston Koon. "Playing for Coach Eason was one of the best experiences I could have asked for in college baseball. He's very knowledgable about the in's and out's of the game and pushes each one of his players to the best of their ability. I couldn't be more thankful for having him as my JUCO coach becuase my experiences at Pitt were some of the best of my career." - Former PCC All-American Houston Koon
"Congratulations to Pitt Community College Head Coach Tommy Eason on his 600th win leading the Bulldogs program. Pitt has been an upper echelon mainstay in Region 10 both as DI and DII members in the standings, in the classroom, and in moving student-athletes on to the next level during Coach Eason's tenure. Region 10 is appreciative of Coach Eason setting high standards for Pitt's program and we look forward to his chase for 700." - Region 10 Director Lind Hartsell
PCC will travel to Fayetteville Tech this weekend to take on the Trojans.
