@MSUDenverBSB: Four Roadrunners Earn NCBWA All-Region Honors
DENVER — The National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association announced its All-South Central region baseball teams Friday afternoon and listed three MSU Denver Roadrunners on the All-Region second team and one honorable mention.
Andrew Graham, Cam Yuran, and Jesse Velders were all tabbed for NCBWA second team honors while Easton Amundson was an honorable mention.
Graham was unstoppable at the plate for the Roadrunners, batting his way into the top 5 in batting average in the conference at a .446 clip, which also led MSU Denver. He hit 14 homers, with 78 RBIs, scored 71 times, and had the most doubles in the conference with 27. He ranked top 10 in the RMAC for AVG (.446), slugging (.832), OBP (.537), OPS (1.369), runs (71), hits (82), RBIs (78), doubles (27), and stolen bases (12).
Yuran soared up the rankings this season in just about every category in the program record books, ending his illustrious career with the Roadrunners. He slashed a line of .358/.514/.797 with career-high marks for slugging and on-base percentage. Yuran also set career-high numbers this season with 21 home runs and 69 RBIs. He ranked top-10 in the RMAC in slugging (.797), OBP (.514), OPS (1.418), runs (84), RBIs (69), doubles (17), and led the league with 57 walks.
The sweet-swinging lefty is now MSU Denver's all-time leader in hits (268), runs (276), RBIs (234), doubles (68), walks (174), total bases (522), slugging percentage (.746), and home runs (61).
Velders finished the regular season with a line of .359/.495/.667 in 44 games played. Despite battling through injury during the season, he had 9 home runs, 36 RBIs, and 47 runs. His .495 on-base percentage ranked third on the team only behind Graham and Yuran. He earned RMAC Player of the Week honors in the first week of April for his four-homer performance in the series against Adams State.
The senior transfer, Amundson, made an immediate impact for the Roadrunners in his lone season at MSUD, belting a program record 34 home runs. He also led the nation in home runs and was second in RBIs with 93, he was one home run shy of tying the all-time Divison II record in an individual season. He slashed a line of .329/.426/.918 and his slugging percentage ranks number one all-time for a Roadrunner in an individual season.
