While playing four-years of baseball at Behrend, speedster Quinn McGuire (1994-97) left a lot of people in his dust.

McGuire, a Shaler High School product, will always be remembered for being a baserunning stalwart and for passing former Behrend graduate and major leaguer Tom Lawless in several offensive statistical categories. McGuire remains the program’s all-time leader in career stolen bases with 80, and its single-season record holder with 30.

McGuire was a change agent for the baseball program and led the team to its second most wins in school history and its most wins in 15 years. Based on his effort, McGuire and the team were ranked nationally for stolen bases as the program began to turn the corner and embark on its most successful decade in baseball history.

McGuire, was named the 1995-96 Behrend Lions Male Athlete of the Year. At the conclusion of his great career McGuire ranked first all-time in games played with 124, and at-bats with 397. He also ranked second all-time for career hits with 126, and third in runs scored with 78, while batting .317.
