Jack McKeon & Jim Morris are the programs foundation also Dick Such major league pitching coach and umpires Drew Coble & Joe West are Elon products fwiw.

I knew about McKeon and Joe West... i had tried to look up Jim Morris when you posted as i figured it had some connection but it didnt mention Elon at all in his Bio.
