August 29, 2016 | Baseball
PRINCETON, N.J. – Former Tiger Danny Hoy has signed a contract with the Schaumburg Boomers of the independent Frontier League.
Hoy was one of the stalwarts for the Princeton Tigers, leading to the 2016 Ivy League title. It was the program's eight Ivy title and 12th appearance in the NCAA Tournament. "We're thrilled that Danny has the opportunity to continue to put on a uniform", said Robert H.B. Baldwin '42 Head Coach of Baseball Scott Bradley. "We're looking forward to him continuing his professional career."
Hoy picked up his second career first team All-Ivy accolade during his senior season after finishing in the conference's top ten in runs (41), hits (55), doubles (11), home runs (five), RBI (28), total bases (81), stolen bases (nine), batting average (.322) and slugging percentage (.474).
After beginning the campaign with a .235 batting average during the month of March, the second baseman was lights out in April, boasting a .398/.474/.614 slash line. In his 20 conference games, Hoy scored 26 times, smashed 11 extra-base hits and hit .403 while slugging .639 and getting on base at a .482 clip. The Princeton graduate was also named to the Lafayette Regional All-Tournament team.
The Sellersville, Pa., native had a sparkling career as a Tiger as he finished with a .306 average, 111 runs scored, 67 extra-base hits and 90 RBI. His name will be all over the program's record book as he placed in the top five all-time in doubles, extra base hits and in the top ten in total bases, runs, hits and steals.
