Ryan Sullivan (’13-’17) and Cam Cook (’16-’17) are headed for the Futures League Hall of Fame Induction on November 8. The two Silver Knights were teammates for the back-to-back championships in 2016 & 2017.
Few names appear in the Futures League record books as many times as Ryan Sullivan, who played in a league-record 185 regular-season and 17 postseason games over five seasons (2013-17) as a Nashua Silver Knight. The Southern New Hampshire University product is also the league’s all-time leader in regular-season career at-bats (682), RBI (145), hits (199), total bases (351) and doubles (41). He ranks second in home runs (37) and extra-base hits (78) and third in runs scored (109), all helping him slug at an incredible .515 clip and post an .874 OPS. A four-time Futures League All-Star, Sullivan was an offensive backbone on consecutive championship teams in 2016 and 2017, capping the first of those title runs with Postseason Most Valuable Player honors after hitting .444 with two homers, eight RBI and five runs scored in six games. His 12 playoff hits in 2016 are the most in Futures League history and included a game-tying homer to force extra innings in the first championship game against Worcester. In his postseason career, he was a .342 hitter and still holds record totals with his 20 RBI, 25 total hits and 42 total bases.
Cam Cook is known today for his work leading the Nashua Silver Knights as their general manager, but his ties to the Futures League date back to his days as a standout player during the final two summers of his career at Nichols College. The infielder contributed to the Silver Knights winning their second pair of back-to-back championships in 2016 and 2017, hitting .378 with 107 hits in 75 career regular-season games. Cook put together one of the most incredible single seasons in league history with 81 hits over 50 games in 2017, setting a record that still stands today despite the closest player appearing in eight more contests. Until 2023, only one player had come within 10 hits of Cook’s record total. The first-team All-Futures League selection at third base, Cook also led the league with a .397 average, had a .442 on-base percentage and trailed only Hall of Fame classmate Sullivan among Nashua’s leading run producers with 30 RBI that summer. He also posted 12 hits in 11 career postseason games, including two-hit showings in both title round games in 2016. Having completed his sixth year leading the Nashua front office in 2025, Cook has built two more title-winning teams and was named the 2020 William J. Terlecky Executive of the Year.
