All-region honors go to Wilson-Traisman & Murrey

The ABCA/Rawlings Division III All-Midwest Region team

For the second season in a row, the Macalester Scots have had two players selected to the American Baseball Coaches Association (ABCA) / Rawlings Division III All-Midwest Region team. Earning second-team all-regions honors are shortstop Nate Wilson-Traisman (Jr., Eugene, Ore. / South Eugene) and pitcher James Murrey (Jr., Western Springs, Ill. / Lyons Township).

Nate Wilson-Traisman
Wilson-Traisman enjoyed another big season defensively at shortstop and as the No. 3 hitter in the lineup, produced the program's highest batting average since All-American Joel Brettingen hit .478 in 2002. His 44 RBI's were just four away from a school record. Wilson-Traisman finished with a .425 average, a .630 slugging percentage, a .472 on-base percentage and 19 extra base hits. He led the team runs scored with 30 and at shortstop was in on 21 double plays while playing every inning of the season.

James Murrey
Murrey led the MIAC in both ERA and strikeouts, posting a 42 to 4 strikeout-to-walk ratio in league play, and put together one of the best pitching seasons in team history. He went 6-3 with a 1.95 ERA in nine starts, striking out 76 and walking only four in 55 1/3 innings. Opponents batted .213 off him and he reached double digits in K's in four starts. Murrey is currently ranked 10th in the NCAA Division III in strikeouts per nine innings (12.4) and 13th in earned run average.
