Senior closer David Berg led the way with an appearance on all four services that have released their teams so far. D1Baseball listed Berg as a first teamer, calling him ‘the most decorated closer in college baseball history’ with a ‘dominant’ senior campaign.

Berg further appears as a first teamer on both the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association (NBCWA) All-Amerian team and the Louisville Slugger All-American team, which cited his ‘monster numbers’. Baseball America missed the memo and only placed Berg on its second team. Berg is additionally the third UCLA pitcher in the last five years to be named Pac-12 Pitcher of the Year.

Additional Honorees

• Junior ace James Kaprielian was a second team All American for D1Baseball and Louisville Slugger and a third team Baseball America honoree.

• Junior shortstop Kevin Kramer was named to Baseball America’s second team and Louisville Slugger’s third team.

• Freshman starter Griffin Canning was named to the Louisville Slugger and NBCWA Freshman All American teams.
