Patrick Barnett, Broderick Moore, & Trae Minton

Senior center fielder Trae Minton along with junior outfielder Patrick Barnett and freshman pitcher Broderick Moore were each named Second Team All-Conference. In addition, Minton also was also one of just nine players chosen for the elite Gold Glove Squad which signifies the nine best position defensive players in the league.

Minton had a solid year as he finished sixth in the league with a .363 batting average and ninth with a .527 slugging percentage. He led the club in hits, runs scored, doubles and walks drawn. On the defensive end, he also was ninth in fielding percentage at .983.

Barnett finished fourth on the club in batting average at .323 and had a slugging percentage of .431. On defense, he had a fielding percentage of .987.

Moore led all pitchers in games played (15). His productivity increased as the season grew and he concluded the year throwing among the conference’s best pitchers. He demonstrated how highly opposing coaches viewed him as he was one of only three freshmen to be voted first or second team.
