So the 2nd leading hitter, who lead the conference until he was injured, doesn’t make All SWAC lol. This is almost as bad as Antoine Gray, who was a All American with 18 HR’s, didn’t make All SWAC. They said he benefitted from hitting behind Rickie Weeks lol.

Because of his injury, he didn't register in the final swac stats. Therefore, he shouldn't have made the SWAC team. Can't go by what he probably would have done. Now the Antoine Gray situation was the worst ever.

Hope David is ready for the tourney.

He missed 2 series. He had a lot of AB’s
 
What about Daniel Lingua from Prairie View, the league's leading hitter. Why was he left off?
The 1st team 3b is also the co-player of the year, so that wouldn't fly. Can't say why he didn't beat out the guy form J-State.

Have to realize there will always be someone who was left off that we feel should have made it.

Not enough. He missed 8 conference games. He didn't have nearly as many AB's as the players listed on the SWAC stats list.

Nevermind......This is the SWAC. They could have put him on the 2nd team. (reviewing the swac stat list again......smh)
 
Congratulations to the honorees!

So, so very happy to see Nick Kreutzer listed. Thought he’d make first team, but the kid has a great attitude and is very humble. He truly has the Heart of a Lion!
 
None of these guys made All-Swac

He did make 2nd team here


And this guy missed out but was named Freshman of the Year and put on the 1st team
