ATHENS—–University of Georgia outfielder/infielder Charlie Condon has been named a preseason first team All-American by D1Baseball, it was announced Wednesday.

A 6-6, 216-pound native of Marietta, Ga., he posted one of the greatest seasons in school history in 2023. Condon was the consensus National Freshman of the Year. He hit .386/.484/.800 with 25 home runs and 67 RBI in 56 games. He led all freshmen in OPS (1.284) and slugging, while tying for the most home runs nationally among freshmen.
