GREENSBORO, N.C. – The American Baseball Coaches Association (ABCA) announced their 2025 all-region baseball teams on May 28. Drury's
Jackson Crider and
Wyatt Morgan were voted to represent the Midwest.
The 2025 ABCA/Rawlings NCAA Div. II All-Region teams and Regional Players of the Year have been announced in all eight regions. The teams are voted on by members of the American Baseball Coaches Association and the process is led by the
ABCA NCAA Div. II All-America & Coach of the Year Committee. The ABCA/Rawlings NCAA Div. II All-America teams will be announced on Friday, May 30. Only First Team All-Region selections are eligible for All-America honors.
Jackson Crider received first-team honors. The Redshirt Freshman from San Antonio, Texas, led the entire Midwest region in batting average with .434, on-base percentage with .548, hits with 82, and hit by pitches with 29. Earlier this month, Crider was named to the all-American honorable mention team from the Division Two Conference Commissioners Association (D2CCA), the all-region first team by the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association (NCBWA) and the D2CCA. He was also a unanimous first-team all-Great Lakes Valley Conference (GLVC) selection. Crider's .434 average was 12th in the nation. He was also in the top ten in the country in hit-by-pitches (7th) and on-base percentage (9th). His 82 hits were the 39th most in the country.
Wyatt Morgan was voted to the second team as a second baseman. The graduate student from Kansas City, Kansas, hit .303 this season with a .981 OPS. Morgan's 11 homers were tied for the most on the team with Crider. Morgan recorded 42 RBIs, 43 runs scored, and a team-high 36 walks this season. In Morgan's first season with the Panthers, he earned second-team all-GLVC honors.
The GLVC took up 16 of the 34 all-region selections, including the Player of the Year in Mikey Kocen from Lewis.
Drury's season ended in the GLVC Tournament with a 33-23 overall record.
