Marshall Awtry Named CoSIDA Academic All-District for Baseball

5/16/2022 12:00:00 AM



Goldey-Beacom junior catcher Marshall Awtry (Hockessin, DE) has proven he can do it all on the baseball diamond and now has proven he also is polished off the field in being named CoSIDA Academic All-District.
 
Awtry is the 21st student-athlete in the College's illustrious history to be so honored and the second for baseball with Bryan Bell being tabbed last year.  Awtry now goes before the national committee that picks the Academic All-Americas.
 
It has been a star-spangled year for Awtry, who began his 2022 awards parade by being named Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference Player of the Year.
 
The importance of Awtry in all facets of the game can not be overstated.  His has come through with many clutch hits for one of the area's top programs and his defense is beyond vital whether with his throws to second or his numerous pickoffs at first base that have erased late-inning runners.
 
Awtry is 66th in the country and first in the CACC with a school-record 14 home runs, fifth in the CACC with 48 RBI, fifth with 64 hits, eighth with 14 doubles, eighth with a .656 slugging percentage, 13th with a .350 batting average and 19th with a .431 on-base percentage.  His 23-game hitting streak earlier this season is a new school record, breaking the old mark of 16.
 
Awtry was far from the only Lightning to gain personal accolades.  Junior shortstop Mason Maxwell (Newfield, NJ) also was picked first team All-CACC after being tabbed second team last year.  Sophomore first baseman Garrett Musey (Millville, NJ) was named second team all-league after being picked first team all-conference and CACC Rookie of the Year last season.  Senior pitcher Mitch Guerrieri (Greentown, PA) was named second-team all-league a second consecutive year and freshman second baseman Braden Kolmansberger (Lewisberry, PA) also was picked second team All-CACC.
 
Goldey-Beacom (27-25, 18-6 CACC) put forth yet another strong campaign in which it broke the school record for most wins, notched a program-best 17 home victories and had a team-high 16-game home winning streak entering the CACC Tournament.  GBC was ranked ninth in both the NCAA East Region Rankings and the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association East Region Poll following the regular season.
 
In its just its sixth season and fifth non-Covid campaign, GBC advanced to the CACC Tournament for the third time and this year ended second in the competitive South Division.  This came one year after the squad played in the NCAA Tournament for the first time.
