University of the Pacific

Richard Davey earned three letters in both basketball and baseball in his time at Pacific.

He started 78 straight games for the Tiger basketball team from 1961-64. An outstanding baseball player as well, Davey earned All-West Coast Conference honors as a catcher in both his junior and senior seasons.

After receiving his degree in education from Pacific in 1964, Davey signed a professional contract with the San Francisco Giants and played two seasons in their farm system before a injury cut short his promising career.

Dick spent 30 years at Santa Clara University, 15 years as an assistant coach to Carroll Williams and 15 years as the Broncos' head coach.

Davey finished his head coaching career with a 251-190 overall record and a 122-88 mark in the WCC. He won three WCC regular season titles, one WCC Tournament championship and made three NCAA Tournament appearances in his 15 seasons.
