Mike Fox To Be Honored During Florida State Series
May 9, 2022 | Baseball
CHAPEL HILL – North Carolina will honor its former head baseball coach Mike Fox prior to game two of the Florida State series on May 20. The ceremony will begin at approximately 5:30 p.m. and will include a video and a special presentation from Chancellor Kevin Guskiewicz and Director of Athletics Bubba Cunningham.
A 1978 UNC graduate, Fox concluded his 37-year head coaching career with a 1,487-547-5 record, a winning percentage of .731. He is the winningest coach in Carolina Baseball history and led UNC to seven of its 11 CWS appearances.
Fox became the head coach at his alma mater prior to the 1999 season. His Tar Heel teams went 948-406-1, won ACC championships in 2007, 2013 and 2019, and advanced to the College World Series in 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2011, 2013 and 2018. The 2006 and 2007 teams reached the championship series in Omaha.
Carolina averaged almost 45 wins per season (prior to the Covid-19 shortened season of 2020) and posted five 50-win seasons under Fox, setting a school-record 59 wins in 2013.
