Harry Westwood was one of the best offensive players in Point Park baseball history. He remains at or near the top of many offensive categories. He also was the two-time NAIA RBI leader (1972 and 1973). Like many players of that era, Westwood was an ex-GI who had come home from the war overseas and still wanted to give college baseball a try. Westwood came to the Pioneers in 1972 and led the NAIA in RBIs his freshman year (1.65 per game) and the following season as a sophomore (1.57 per game). His primary method of run production was the long ball. His four-year home-run total at Point Park was 23, which was first all time at the time of his graduation. That averages out to a remarkable one home run one for every twelve at bats. Westwood finished his storybook career at Point Park with a batting average of .352 and still remains near the top of the all-time home run list (2/23).
