Big East 2017 All Conference Baseball Team

Now that all teams have finished with all playoffs it is time to name the players that were the best during the Big East baseball season.

Rocky Mount Gryphon David Harrison has been named the Big East  player of the year.  He was also a candidate for pitcher of the year but during conference play he was on a tear hitting and  this as well as pitching swayed the vote as player of the year.

Hunt pitcher Bryson Worrell is the pitcher of the year leading the Warriors to the conference championship. Finishing first the coach of the year goes to Hunt's Jon Smith.

Joining Worrell on Hunt's all conference team is Ty Galloway senior catcher, senior third baseman Thomas Bell.  Outfielder/pitcher Josh Fuller a junior, Parker Garris senior outfielder/pitcher and Neil Lewis senior second baseman.  Honorable Mentions from Hunt is senior Conner Griffin.

Second place Rocky Mount the conference tournament champions have three other members besides David Harrison are centerfielder/pitcher Josh Pittman senior, Jarmar Ellis junior outfielder /catcher and freshman pitcher/third baseman Ben Seracki.  Spencer Ramsey is on the honorable mentions team.

Third place Southern Nash has three all stars.  Freshman AJ Jones second base, junior pitcher Trevor Mills and DH and Ryan Marlowe senior center fielder.  Honorable Mentions for the Firebird is senior catcher Dawson Sikes.

Fourth place Fike earns three spots.  Shortstop/pitcher Dwight Daniels senior, Hunter Stokely freshman catcher/third baseman/first
Baseman.  The third all star from Fike junior pitcher/outfielder/third baseman Jaylyn Melton. Honorable Mentions from The Golden Demons is Zack Pittman sophomore utility player.

Nash Central earns three spots and they will start with Payton Bass junior centerfielder, junior catcher Chase Minshew and Colby Carter junior left fielder.  The Bulldogs honorable mention player is senior pitcher/outfielder Cameron Taylor.

Northern Nash has one player in junior catcher Silas Gonzalaz a and their honorable mentions player is Aaron Gerlach  sophomore first baseman.

I don't know if this has ever happened before three freshman are all conference.  Ten seniors finish their high school careers as all stars., eight juniors.
