TRAVIS ECKERT (Baseball 1952-54)
A team leader in almost every offensive category, Travis Eckert earned all-star honors as an outfielder on teams that won three Southwest Conference championships and finished as the National Championship runner-up in 1953. Eckert was an All-SWC selection and second-team All-America on the Longhorn team that went all the way to the finals of the NCAA College World Series in 1953. He again earned All-SWC honors and was a third-team All-America pick in 1954. Through the 1968 season, when the schedule was limited to no more than 30 regular season games, Eckert ranked first in career triples and total bases, and was second in home runs. After a four-year stint in professional baseball following his time at Texas, Eckert returned to Austin and entered the insurance business. For 37 years he volunteered as an official at the Texas Relays, and he was one of the founders of the Texas Relays Officials Association.
