A dual threat, Kirk Vucsko competed for Lewis University, not only as a baseball player, but as a member of the Flyer men's basketball team.
Kirk Vucsko
  Vucsko contributed immediately upon his arrival, as he was a member of the Flyer baseball team that advanced to the 1980 College World Series. During that campaign, he went 12-1 with an ERA of 2.83 on the mound, while batting .286 with five home runs and 22 RBI.
  In his second season with the Flyers, Vucsko was 11-1 with two saves, while batting .361 with 12 home runs and 52 RBI in 1981.
  As a junior, Vucsko was selected to the All-GLVC Team as a pitcher in 1982. He was equally as adept at the plate, as he batted .362 with seven home runs and 63 RBI that year. Following that season, Vucsko was drafted by the Los Angeles Dodgers in the 28th round.
  As a member of the basketball team, Vucsko (1980-83) played a crucial role in helping the Flyers to its first two NCAA Tournament berths in school-history, including the Lewis' first-ever Great Lakes Valley Conference championship in 1982.
  Vucsko left Neil Carey Arena as the fourth-best free throw shooter in school-history, knocking down 83.5% (142-for-170) of his charity shots.
