PAGE COLLECTS WIN 700 AT REGIONAL

JACKSON, MS- Millsaps' dramatic 7-6 win over the Whitworth Pirates in the West Regional was milestone victory number 700 for Millsaps' head coach Jim Page. 

The 700 wins puts Page in select company amongst Division-III coaches as he became one of just 15 active coaches to achieve the milestone and one of just 25 all-time to pull the feat as of 2014, the most up-to-date Division-III record book. 

Page's senior class was a part of both his 600th and 700th career victories, marking one of the most successful runs for one single graduating class. Page's 600th win came on April 4, 2012 when the Majors clinched the Maloney Series trophy with a 6-3 win over local rival Belhaven. Page secured win 500 on February 6, 2009 with a 12-8 win over LaGrange.

Page's 27 seasons marks the third-fastest active coach behind only Augie Schmidt IV from Carthage (WI) and Norm Schoenig from Montclair State (NJ) who did it in 26 seasons. They all chase the all-time winningest Division-III coach, Don Schaly of Marietta (OH) College who amassed 1,438 wins in 40 seasons with the Pioneers.
