Ithaca College Athletic Hall of Fame
Wright has been involved with Ithaca's baseball program for over 40 years. As a player, he helped the Bombers to a three-year record of 52-16-1 with two NCAA playoff appearances. A stellar defensive second baseman, Wright signed with the New York Yankees after graduating and played one year of professional baseball. He's been an assistant coach with the team since 2006 (Ithaca's made five trips to the NCAA playoffs in that span) and was the team's long-time financial advisor before that, helping oversee fundraising efforts for Ithaca's annual spring trip.
