Nevar Named a Freshman All-American

TUCSON, Ariz. – Western Michigan redshirt freshman outfielder Dylan Nevar has been named to the 2022 Collegiate Baseball Newspaper Freshmen All-American Team, powered by Diamond Sports.

Last month, Nevar became the fifth Bronco to be named the MAC Freshman of the Year after a redshirt freshman campaign which saw him post a .325 batting average while starting 53 of WMU's 54 games.

This season, the Wisconsin Dells, Wis., native paced Western Michigan in home runs (11), doubles (20) and slugging percentage (.614). The 20 doubles were tied for third-most in the MAC, and helped the Broncos set a new single-season program record with 131 two-baggers.
