DURHAM, N.C. – Wake Forest junior Will Craig earned his second first team All-America nod, as he was honored by Baseball America on Tuesday.
A year ago, Craig was a consensus All-American, being selected to the first team by five of six outlets; Baseball America picked him as a second teamer in 2015.
This year, he earns the nod as the first team designated hitter. Craig hit .379 with 16 homers, 16 doubles, 66 RBIs and 47 walks in 55 games.
He also excelled on the mound, finishing with a 2-0 record, 3.54 ERA and team-high nine saves.
Craig is expected to be a first-round pick in the 2016 MLB Draft, which begins on Thursday, June 9 at 7 p.m. ET, and can be watched live on the MLB Network.
