RIVERSIDE – California Baptist University baseball's Harrison Spohn became the first NCAA Division I First Team All-America selection in school history on Thursday. The senior was selected as a First Team Second Baseman by Collegiate Baseball.
It continues an honor roll for Spohn, who was named the 2022 WAC Defensive Player of the Year and to the conference's first team. He ended the regular season leading all of Division I with 28 doubles this season, two more than the runner-up, UNLV's Joey Walls (26). He averaged .50 of a double per game, which tied for third in D-I.
Spohn also ended the regular season ranked ninth in Division I in hits (91). He hit .365 on the season, with .564 slugging and .422 on-base percentages. He accumulated 63 runs, 38 runs batted in, five homers and 14 stolen bases while primarily hitting out of the No. 2 spot in the lineup all year. He ended his career on an 18-game hitting streak.
Defensively, Spohn proved to be elite, as well, and was recognized by his coaches for his glove. He finished with a .979 fielding percentage, teamed up for 37 double plays and logged 162 assists and 121 putouts on the year.
