Message: [QUOTE="MarkyMark, post: 4855827, member: 12210"] Perusing the 2024 Preseason All-American Teams. Players Uconn MAY come across in 2024: 1) First team - [B]Northeastern Mike Sirota CF[/B] (.346/18/54) - Saw him last year at Elliott had a big day but was overshadowed by Maldonado. Projected first-round pick (high as #11). He's probably helping drive NE to be ranked in some preseason polls. 2) First team - [B]Kansas St. Tyson Neighbors Closer[/B] (5-1/1.85/11 saves) May start in '24. (This game at Elliott is a must attend -see Culpepper below) 3) Second team - [B]UCLA Duce Gourson 2B[/B] (.319/10/48) 4) Second team- [B]UC Santa Barbara Hudson Barrett Closer[/B] (6-1/1.92/6 saves) 5) Second team - [B]Indiana St Jared Spencer Closer[/B] (3-2/3.86/7 saves) 6) Third team - [B]UC Santa Barbara Matt Ager SP[/B] (5-4/3.12) UCSB pitching is loaded from what I've read. 8 quality arms battling for starting roles. Additional Comments 1) Player of Year: Nick Kurtz Wake 1B (projected top pick in this year's draft; Btw saw Caglianone at #4 overall) 2) Pitcher of the year: Chase Burns Wake (transfer from Tenn throws 100mph+ projected top third of first-round pick in draft - Understatement but Wake is stacked - I believe 4-5 projected first-round picks) 3) [B]Kaelen Culpepper Kansas St SS [/B]projected first-round pick (no all-America honors) 4) [B]Caleb Lomavita Cal C[/B] projected first-round pick (no all-America honors) (saw him last year in series at Berkeley - Caught my eye but wasn't thinking 1st round - standard disclaimer - I'm not a scout and small sample size.)
