STATESBORO - Noah Ledford has been named an ABCA/Rawlings Second Team All-American, announced this morning by the American Baseball Coaches Association.
Ledford earned the honor of second team All-American after posting numbers in the top five in most major offensive categories in the Sun Belt, including OPS (fifth), hits (fifth), doubles (second), home runs (third), slugging percentage (fifth), and led the conference in RBI with 70. In addition to leading the Eagles in all of these numbers, he was also tied for first in hits with 79 hits on the team. Ledford's season ended with him posting career-highs in every offensive category save for triples.
This marks the second All-American honor that Ledford has received this season. Earlier this week, Ledford was named to the NCBWA Third-Team All-American squad by the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association.
This is the second year in a row the Eagles have had All-Americans from both the ABCA and NCBWA. In 2021,
Nick Jones and
Mason McWhorter were both named All-Americans from both of these organizations.
