A Record‑Breaking Campaign
Senior outfielder Nick Pappas of the Bentley Falcons was selected to the All‑America Third Team by the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association, a testament to his dominant performance this spring.
Pappas is batting .400 with 12 home runs and 60 runs batted in, having amassed 86 hits and 84 runs — both single‑season records for the program. He has logged 29 multi‑hit games, including a 10‑game hitting streak to open the year and a stretch of seven consecutive multi‑hit contests from March 21 to 31.
His power has translated into the postseason, where he is slugging .742 over seven games, underscoring his ability to drive the ball when it matters most.
