DALLAS – Redshirt senior pitcher Tyler Grauer has been named a First-Team Preseason All-American by the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association. It marks the second preseason All-American honor for the left-hander this season after being named to the Third Team by D1Baseball.com.
He is just one of two non-power five players to be named to the First Team by NCBWA and he joins Evansville's Tanner Craig after the slugger was named to the Second Team. Grauer also earned Preseason All-MVC honors.
Grauer, a Shawnee, Kansas native, appeared in seven games out of the bullpen during the 2020 season and recorded a team best five saves.
