LSU’s Jared Jones named Second-Team Freshman All-American
Beware the Bear.
Jared Jones was honored as a Second-Team Freshman All-American by the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association.
Jones, who’s from Marietta, Georgia, emerged onto the scene in Baton Rouge as a first baseman and designated hitter. He has a batting average of .304 with 14 homers and 45 RBI.
He hasn’t seen as much playing time lately with the progression of Cade Beloso at first base and the fact that Jones has been a little banged up recently. Despite that, his future is bright at LSU.
At the start of the season, he is a big reason why the Tigers were doing so well until he got into a slump. Jones will be a cornerstone for the Tigers for at least the next two years.
LSU begins a run at another national title in Omaha this Saturday night at 6 p.m. CT as they take on the Tennessee Volunteers.
