Northeastern State University Baseball Camps
Sunny Golloway enters his second season as the head baseball coach at Northeastern State University.
Before Golloway was hired at NSU, he was the head coach at East Central University for one year where he guided the Tigers to the program’s most wins since 2017.
He was the head coach at Auburn University for two years, leading them to an NCAA Tournament appearance. Golloway also spent eight seasons as head coach at the University of Oklahoma, where he led the Sooners to seven NCAA Regional berths, four NCAA Super Regionals and the 2010 College World Series.
Golloway has been a proven winner at each of his head coaching stops. In 18 full seasons as a Division one head coach – two seasons at Auburn, and eight seasons each at Oklahoma and Oral Roberts – Golloway has amassed a record of 743-387-1 (.657), including 12 seasons with at least 40 wins. He recorded a mark of 346-181-1 (.656) in eight-plus seasons as the Oklahoma head coach, an average of more than 40 wins per season. Prior to the 2013 season, Golloway’s winning percentage ranked No. 15 nationally among active head coaches.
In his final season at Oklahoma, Golloway led the Sooners to a 43-21 overall record, a Big 12 Tournament title, an NCAA Regional title and a Super Regional appearance. His final team at Oklahoma also produced a pair of All-Americans, including pitcher Jonathan Gray, the No. 3 overall pick in the 2013 Major League Baseball First-Year Player Draft.
Under Golloway, Oklahoma posted the program’s fifth-straight 40-win regular season in 2013, making Oklahoma one of few programs nationally to win at least 40 games in five consecutive years. The Sooners finished third in the Big 12 standings while making the program’s sixth-straight NCAA postseason appearance (36th overall). OU finished the 2013 campaign ranked as high as No. 18 in the nation after falling to LSU in the NCAA Baton Rouge Super Regional.
The Sooners hosted three NCAA Regionals under Golloway while appearing in the program’s only Super Regional appearances (2006, 2010, 2012 and 2013) and making it back to the College World Series in 2010 for the first time since 1995.
Golloway has 26 years of experience as a collegiate coach. Prior to being a head coach, he served as an assistant coach at Oklahoma from 1992-95, helping lead the Sooners to three trips to the College World Series in those four years and a national title in 1994. He took over as head coach at Oral Roberts in 1996, and the Golden Eagles won the Mid-Continent Conference title and advanced to an NCAA Regional in each of his final six seasons at ORU.
He returned to Oklahoma as associate head coach in 2004 and was elevated to interim head coach on May 1, 2005. Two months later, he was named Oklahoma’s eighth head baseball coach.
Golloway has produced 80 MLB draft picks in his 18-year tenure as a collegiate head coach, and a total of 113 players have been draft selections in his 26 years in college baseball. He has also coached 94 all-conference selections between his two head coaching stops, including 61 All-Big 12 selections at Oklahoma.
Three of OU’s recruiting classes under Golloway ranked in the top 10 in Collegiate Baseball’s national rankings, including the 2007 group of newcomers that was tabbed the fourth best in the country, the highest ranking since 1987 and tied for the second best in program history. At ORU, Golloway posted a mark of 335-156 (.682). He coached 16 All-Americans, three Freshman All-Americans and 26 of his ORU players were drafted or signed professional contracts. He was honored four times as Mid-Continent Conference Coach of the Year by his peers (1998, 1999, 2000, 2002).
In his final six seasons at Oral Roberts, Golloway was responsible for turning the Golden Eagles into one of the nation’s winningest programs. The program flourished under Golloway’s guidance and tallied 277 wins in that time, an average of more than 46 victories per season, and a .731 winning percentage. Golloway and the Golden Eagles dominated the Mid-Continent Conference after joining the league in 1998, winning six consecutive regular season and tournament titles, and advancing to six consecutive NCAA Regionals. ORU was an amazing 85-5 in conference play over his last four seasons.
Golloway is a former Team USA assistant coach, and former head coach of several collegiate summer teams. In the summer of 2002, he was selected to serve as pitching coach for the USA Baseball National Team. Under his direction, the team recorded the lowest ERA in its history. Golloway also helped Team USA to a silver medal that season.
