Rest in peace to a WAC legend.
In just 3 seasons in the WAC, he helped lead the Sun Devils to 3 WAC titles, 3 CWS and the 1977 National Championship.
Horner is still 4th all-time in WAC Home Runs, 7th all-time in WAC RBI.
Sun Devil Baseball is saddened by the passing of Sun Devil Athletics Hall of Famer Bob Horner.
Horner helped lead ASU to three consecutive College Word Series appearances, including the 1977 National Championship and was named the Most Outstanding Player of the CWS. Horner was the very first Golden Spikes Award winner, as well as The Sporting News Player of the Year. The Atlanta Braves made him the Number One overall pick in the 1978 Major League Baseball Draft. In 1999, Baseball America ranked Horner the #2 College Player of the Century Team.
