Sports Heroes: Dave Collins

MCC alum Dave Collins had a 16-year Major League Baseball career, during which he played for eight teams, stole 395 bases and, while playing for the Toronto Blue Jays in 1984, led the American League with 15 triples. He told Argus Leader  he went to Mesa Community College in Arizona in part because he had a chance to both play baseball and run track. He could also get in front of far more scouts than he would in South Dakota and potentially transfer to Arizona or Arizona State, two strong college baseball programs.
