The honors keep stacking up for LSU junior pitcher Jaden Hill, who was named a first-team preseason All-American by Perfect Game on Thursday.
Hill was also recognized last month when Collegiate Baseball named him to its first team.
He pitched out of the bullpen last year, allowing just one hit in 11 2/3 innings, recording 17 strikeouts.
His opponents batted .028 (1-for-36) before the Tigers’ season ended at just 17 games because of restrictions and precautions taken due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Hill and the rest of LSU baseball are scheduled to start their full-squad preseason practice sessions on Friday, January 29. The Tigers’ schedule is set to be finalized in the coming weeks.
LSU is No. 7 in the Collegiate Baseball preseason poll, and No. 8 in the Perfect Game Top 25.
