Bazzana, Brown, Kmatz Named Freshman All-Americans

TUCSON, Ariz. – Oregon State right-handed pitchers Ryan Brown and Jacob Kmatz and second baseman Travis Bazzana have been named Freshman All-Americans by Collegiate Baseball, the publication announced Wednesday.

The three represent the most Beavers recognized in a single year since Mitch Hickey, KJ Harrison and Drew Rasmussen were honored in 2015. Oregon State has never had more than three Freshman All-Americans in the same season.

Brown, a third-year redshirt freshman, was named an All-Pac-12 First Teamer in May. He's currently second in the Pac-12 Conference with nine saves and sports a 5-1 record and 5.
