Titan Sports Hall of Fame
Sewall, a four-year letter winner with the baseball program, was the ace of the pitching staff throughout his final three seasons and helped lead Westminster to the West Penn Conference (WPC) Championship in each of his four seasons. He won at least five games as a starter in each of his final three seasons and totaled over 20 career victories. Sewall's earned-run average (ERA) also led the staff in two of his final three seasons. In 1963 he fired a pair of two-hitters, one against Grove City College and the other against Saint Vincent College, and finished the year with a 0.94 ERA. An honor student, Sewall was an active leader with a variety of civic organizations both on campus and in the community. Sewall was elected team captain and president of the Titan Varsity W All-Sports Organization as a senior. In 1965 Sewall was honored as the first-ever recipient of the NAIA's Gene Waldron Memorial Award as the nation's top student-athlete in baseball, given for athletic ability in baseball, academic achievement and good citizenship. A national award, it was presented at the NAIA World Series at Phil Welch Stadium in St. Joseph, Missouri. Following his graduation from Westminster, Sewall served in the U.S. Army during the Vietnam War (1968-69).
