Grego Named Third-Team All-American by ABCA/Rawlings

MUNCIE, Ind. -- Ball State shortstop Dylan Grego has been named a third-team All-American, as announced today by the American Baseball Coaches Association and Rawlings. The 25th All-America selection in Cardinals' baseball history, he is Ball State's first All-American since starting pitcher Tyler Schweitzer was named a second-team honoree in 2022.

Named first-team all-league in the Mid-American Conference and an ABCA/Rawlings All-Midwest Region pick earlier this week, Grego was also named to the MAC's All-Defensive Team and is a semifinalist for the Brooks Wallace Award, presented to the nation's top shortstop.

"Dylan Grego had an outstanding season in all facets of the game," said Cardinals coach Rich Maloney. "He was outstanding while hitting from both sides of the plate, his fielding prowess in making only five errors was amazing, and he was a clutch player. Watching Dylan grow as a person and a player has been a joy. This is a tremendous honor and well-deserved."

Grego's 91 hits on the year led the MAC, and were the third-most in a season in Ball State baseball history. The junior out of Kansas City, Mo., concluded the campaign with a .376 batting average, 1.053 OPS, 14 doubles, two triples, 14 home runs, 55 RBI, 58 runs scored and 15 stolen bases while starting in every game. Grego paced MAC shortstops in hits, batting average, runs scored, home runs, RBI and total bases while ranking third overall in the conference in batting average and fourth in total bases.
