A two-time all-conference pick, he finished his career as SDSU's all-time leader in career runs (214), hits (277) and at-bats (767). He was also second in career stolen bases (116), including a streak of 30 consecutive.
A member of the U.S. all-star team that played in Japan, he was selected to play for the USA in the Pan American games. Meacham was the eighth pick of the 1981 MLB Draft by St. Louis and later played for the New York Yankees.
