Even in a shortened season the Florida Gators baseball team made an impact, including three newcomers.
Florida freshmen Hunter Barco, Tyler Nesbitt, and Nathan Hickey were all named Freshmen All-American by Collegiate Baseball Newspaper.
Barco was a high-end draft prospect that quickly earned the Sunday starter job with the Gators. Barco finished the 2020 season with a 2-0 record and a 1.40 ERA. He struck out 26 batters to just six walks in 19.1 innings.
Hickey is another freshman that found a starting role. The catcher/designated hitter hit .311 with four home runs, two doubles and batted in seven.
