SAN BERNARDINO — Stanislaus State men's basketball head coach Larry Reynolds will be inducted into the Cal State San Bernardino Athletics Hall of Fame this May, as CSUSB announced its class of 2017 on Wednesday.
Reynolds, who spent five seasons from 1997 to 2002 as the head coach of the Coyotes, will join Laura Beeman (women's basketball), John Major (baseball) and Jackie Powers (women's soccer) at the induction ceremony on the campus of CSU San Bernardino on May 19.
"The four new members are a talented class of Coyotes who represented CSUSB as student-athletes and in coaching in a distinguished manner. Our Class of 2017 is an outstanding group of individuals who each played integral roles in building our department's reputation," CSUSB Director of Athletics Morgan Walker said. "Laura Beeman, John Major, Jackie Powers and Larry Reynolds are very deserving of this honor and we're honored to celebrate each one of them this coming May.''
Under Reynolds' direction, CSUSB captured three CCAA titles (2000, 2001, 2002), two NCAA West Region titles (1999 and 2002) and four consecutive NCAA Tournament berths (1999-02) in his five seasons. The Coyotes were 110-35 under Reynolds and he remains the leader in winning percentage (.759). Reynolds led the Coyotes to a 28-2 overall record in 2001-02 — the best record of any NCAA men's basketball program that season. He earned four CCAA Coach of the Year honors (1999-02) and was named the National Association of Basketball Coaches District Eight Coach of the Year in 1998-99.
Reynolds left CSUSB for Long Beach State after the 2002 season and while at Long Beach State won the Big West Championship and a NCAA Tournament Appearance in 2007.
Reynolds has been the head coach at Stanislaus State since 2009.
