Drew University Athletics Hall of Fame
Arthur excelled as a left-handed pitcher for the Rangers. He enjoyed his best season during his senior campaign in 1995, when he earned a spot on the All-MAC Freedom Conference First Team after posting a 7-3 record to go with 74 strikeouts over 86 innings pitched. He also fired just the fifth no-hitter in team history that season, when he struck out 11 batters in a 5-0 win over Upsala College. It was an historic year for the Rangers, who won 20 games for the first time (20-18, 8-4 MAC Freedom) and made the program's debut in the MAC playoffs. For his career, Arthur finished 14-13 with 144 strikeouts, 12 complete games, and three shutouts over 202 innings pitched. At the time of his induction, he continued to be ranked among Drew's all-time leaders in numerous categories, including shutouts (tied for first), wins (tied for fourth), and strikeouts (tied for fifth). In his post-collegiate career, Arthur played for a pair of independent league teams as well as the British national team. He passed away suddenly from a heart attack in 2006 at the age of 32.
