[QUOTE="Vernon, post: 132674785, member: 1034769"] [B]MORGANTOWN, W.Va. (Feb. 6, 2024)[/B] [B]– [/B]Junior infielder JJ Wetherholt of the West Virginia University baseball team has been named a preseason First-Team All-American by the NCBWA. It is his fifth major honor of the preseason after having previously been selected as the Preseason Big 12 Player of the Year and a preseason All-American by Perfect Game, D1Baseball, and Baseball America. Wetherholt, a unanimous First-Team All-American in 2023 and reigning Big 12 Player of the Year, led the nation with a .449 batting average a season ago while also pacing the Mountaineers with 16 home runs, 60 RBI, 67 runs, 24 doubles and 36 stolen bases. The Mars, Pennsylvania native has played in 109 games in two seasons with WVU. He has a career .381 batting average to go along with 21 home runs, 99 RBI, 41 doubles and 51 stolen bases. Wetherholt is just the third Mountaineer in program history to be named a preseason First-Team All-American after Matt Schubert (Collegiate Baseball, 1992) and Braden Zarbnisky (NCBWA, 2018). Entering the 2024 season, Wetherholt is projected as one of the top selections in the upcoming MLB Draft including being listed as the top prospect by MLB.com, Baseball America and Perfect Game. The Mountaineers begin the 2024 campaign on Feb. 16, on the road at Stetson in DeLand, Florida. The first chance to catch WVU at Wagener Field at Monongalia County Ballpark will be on Feb. 28, when the Mountaineers take on Canisius.
