FDU Knights Athletics

Inducted: May 17, 2002

Arguably one of the most productive hitters in the baseball program's history, Stephen Stuart helped the Knights to three conference championships, two ECAC Tournament appearances and 78 wins from 1986-89. During that period he earned four straight All-Conference and All-State honors, and appeared in four New Jersey North/South All-Star games.

Along with his accomplishments on the field, Stuart achieved success in the classroom as well, regularly appearing on the Dean's List and earning GTE Academic All-American honors in 1989. That year he led the Northeast Conference with a .423 batting average, 47 hits and 13 doubles. He also belted five home runs and finished second in the league with 32 RBI. For his efforts he was named Northeast Conference and New Jersey Division I Player of the Year, and also earned All-Northeast Region honors. Stuart finished his career with a then school record 176 hits. At the time of his induction he ranks fourth all-time in hits, first in slugging percentage (.621), first in on base percentage (.508), third in runs batted in (138) and fifth in doubles (38).
