New Jersey, Rutgers baseball legend Fred Hill Sr. will be missed.

Former Rutgers Head Baseball Coach Fred Hill Sr. passed away Saturday at the age of 84. He guided the Scarlet Knights for 30 seasons, winning a staggering 941 games, the most of any coach in any sport at RU. Hill is a member of several Hall of Fames, but his impact on the field pales in comparison to all he did off of it.

Hill coached at least 72 players who went on to play professionally, including current Major League players Todd Frazier and Patrick Kivlehan. Frazier, Kivlehan, plus a host of other former players, colleagues, and friends gave their thoughts and thanks to the legend.
