Clemson baseball commitment Geoffrey Gilbert was named the 2017-2018 Gatorade South Carolina Baseball Player of the Year on Tuesday.
Gilbert, a junior at Bishop England High School (Charleston, S.C.), earned the prestigious honor after a stellar season both on the mound and in the batters box.
The 6-foot-2, 200-pound lefthander was 8-0 on the mound with a 0.33 earned run average and 73 strikeouts against just 21 walks in 53.1 innings pitched. At the plate, he hit .446 with three home runs, 26 runs batted in and 23 runs scored.
“It is a huge honor for me,” Gilbert told The Clemson Insider.
