The Beavers have been recognized for the third consecutive season – they’re one of just 15 programs nationally with that distinction
CORVALLIS, Ore. – The Oregon State baseball team has been named as one of 46 programs to receive the American Baseball Coaches Association (ABCA) Team Academic Excellence Award, it was announced on Wednesday.
Â
The Beavers have been recognized for the third consecutive season – they're one of just 15 programs nationally with that distinction. Oregon State is also the only Pac-12 Conference program to be honored in any of the three seasons since the award was created.
Â
To be recognized, teams must have at least a 3.0 grade point average for the 2017-18 academic year. Oregon State, which finished with a 3.19 mark, is one of nearly 300 teams across multiple levels (NCAA Division I, II, III, NAIA, junior college and high school) to be honored this year.
Â
The Beavers had a Pac-12 best 16 student-athletes – for the second consecutive season - recognized academically by the conference in 2018, with Jack Anderson and Cadyn Grenier earning first-team honors. Both were also named CoSIDA Academic All-District 8.
Â
Anderson, meanwhile, was named the Scholar-Athlete of the Year for baseball and just received a postgraduate scholarship from the Pac-12 as he prepares to attend Regis University in Denver.
