Turgeon spent the 2002-2003 academic year as the pitching coach and

he enjoyed a 13-year professional playing career – the first five in the
field where he advanced to the AA level, the last eight as a pitcher where
he rose to the AAA level – and then managed and coached three years in the
Cleveland Indians organization. A 1987 graduate of Davidson (N.C.) College,
Turgeon followed his collegiate career by playing professional ball both in
the United States and overseas.
From 1987-90, he was an infielder in the New York Yankees system and played
for both Stump Merrill and Buck Showalter. From 1991-1999, he played in
Holland (1991), France (1992), Taiwan (1993-96, 1998) and Mexico (1997-99).
In 1998, he returned to the United States and played for the Rochester Red
Wings, the Baltimore Orioles’Class AAA affiliate.
During his playing career, Turgeon earned numerous accolades. He was a
three-time all-star selection in Taiwan. He captured 1998 Player of the
Year honors with the Reynosa Broncos, a Class AAA team in the Mexican League.
After concluding his playing career, Turgeon served in various coaching
capacities with the Indians. Among his positions he managed the Burlington
Indians of the Appalachian League (2000); managed the Mahoning Valley
Scrappers of the New York-Penn League (2001); and worked at the Indians’
extended spring training in Winter Haven, Fla. (2002). Turgeon was a
three-time All Southern Conference selection at third base at Davidson,
and was an All-Region pick his senior year.
A native of Groton, Conn. and a graduate of St. Bernard High School, Turgeon
comes from a family of talented athletes. His brothers, Mike and Steve, both
played collegiate baseball in Connecticut – Mike at Eastern Connecticut
State University and Steve at Central Connecticut. His sister Cheryl was a
standout softball player for Eastern Connecticut State University. Mike went
on to play with the Chicago Cubs and San Francisco Giants minor league
affiliates, and Steve played in the St. Louis Cardinals’ minor league
system. Mike was named the Topps/NABPL 1978 Minor League Player of the Year.
