Angelo State catcher Andrew LaCombe highlighted the Lone Star Conference Baseball All-Academic Team, as the league’s annual postseason awards were announced prior to the start of this week’s LSC Baseball Championship.
LaCombe, a senior from Southlake, Texas, was tabbed Academic Player of the Year to headline the All-Academic team. He was joined by Ram teammate Quaid McKinnon, Tarleton State’s Miguel Ramirez, Abilene Christian’s Jordon Herrera, Brady Rodriguez, and Travis Schuetze, Incarnate Word’s Dylan Boss, Cameron’s Brad Blumer, and Texas A&M-Kingsville’s Chris Ballou.
Schuetze and Blumer were repeat selections.
To be eligible for LSC academic honors, student-athletes must carry at least a 3.30 grade point average and have reached sophomore status both athletically and academically. The Academic Player of Year award and All-Academic Team are selected from the list of academically qualified players, with the league's sports information directors voting on the basis of both academic and athletic achievement.
