Biographical Information

The most successful major league player to come out of the University of South Florida (through 2007), infielder Tim Hulett was signed by the Chicago White Sox and scout Walter Widmayer after being selected in the secondary phase of the January 1980 amateur draft. He played 12 seasons in the major leagues, mostly with the White Sox and the Baltimore Orioles. He was a starter at third base for the Sox in 1985 and 1986, clubbing 17 homers in the latter season. A good clutch hitter, he batted .417 with runners in scoring position with the O's in 1992 and was a starter at third base for a time in 1993 when Leo Gomez went on the disabled list.

Following his playing career, Hulett became the head coach of the Evangel Christian Academy, in Shreveport, LA. He led the Evangel Christian Academy Eagles to the 2006 Louisiana 1A State Championship. In April 2007, he was announced as the manager of the Spokane Indians of the Northwest League.
