Baldwin gets win #350
South Georgia State College Head Men's Basketball Coach Cory Baldwin reached another milestone in his coaching career this past week.
Baldwin earned his 350th career win Wednesday, Feb. 8 when SGSC (19-5, 8-2 GCAA) defeated South Georgia Tech 87-76 in overtime.
Baldwin is in his 14th season at SGSC where he has won 297 games to date. He was hired in 2009 by the former Waycross College when the college started a men's basketball program. Baldwin has won two GCAA Conference Tournament championships (2011, 2021) and one GCAA regular season title (2015). Baldwin began his career at Truett-McConnell University where he won 53 games in three seasons.
"I am thankful for all the texts and calls of congratulations. This means a lot to me and (wife) Amanda," Baldwin said. "This win comes on the backs of so many great, hardworking players, assistant coaches, gameday workers, administrators, volunteers, parents, mentors, and fans who have poured their heart and soul into the teams I have coached. I'm also thankful for all of the great coaches and teams I have been lucky enough to coach against. While getting this win has been special, it's time to move on to the 'Next Play,' which is what I tell the guys all the time."
