Albany State’s Jeremiah Reddell was named to the 2024 NCBWA NCAA Division II Preseason All-American first team. Reddell is coming off an unbelievable season where he went a perfect 12-0, with 83.1 IP, 5 complete games, 1 shutout, and 72 strikeouts. Reddell also compiled an opponent’s .226 batting average against for the Rams who finished 38-11 and 30-2 in conference play.

Coach Scott Hemmings stated, “What an honor for Jeremiah to be named as a Preseason 1st team All-American. He has worked extremely hard to get to this point we are proud to be a part of this journey with him. We return our number 1, 2, and 3 in the rotation and look forward to a great year.”

Reddell was the only player to make an All-American team form the SIAC conference.

Reddell had this to say about his preseason award,” It is a great honor to be recognized by the NCBWA as a first team Preseason All-American. It is a tribute to the hard work and time the Albany State coaching staff has put into me and the hard work I have put in to better myself. It’s truly a blessing.”
