Nine schools had three players chosen, while 17 received two selections and 27 were represented by one player.
The awards honor student-athletes from the Association’s six NAIA regions with selection to one of two teams. NFCA member head coaches nominate and then vote for the winners in their respective region.
If they were not already voted to an All-Region squad, conference Players and Pitchers of the Year from member institutions are added to the second team in their region, so long as they are nominated by their member head coach and receive votes.
All honorees move forward to be considered for selection for the two NFCA NAIA All-America teams, which will be announced June 5.
