Â
TROY, Ala. – Troy slugger Shane Lewis earned his third All-America honor of the year as the American Baseball Coaches Association named Lewis to the ABCA/Rawlings All-America Third Team on Friday.
Â
The 61st All-American in program history, Lewis has now earned All-America honors this season from Collegiate Baseball (second team), the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association (second team) and the American Baseball Coaches Association (third team).
Â
Lewis, a Vicksburg, Miss., native, set the Troy single-season home run record as he hit 27 blasts during his first season with the Trojans. The 27 bombs broke a 24-year-old record held by Jorge Soto, who hit 26 home runs during the 1999 season.Â
Â
Additionally, Lewis' 77 RBIs rank as the second-most in program history, behind only Joey Denison's 81 during Troy's 2018 NCAA Regional run. He also finished the season with 45 walks, the seventh most in a single season in program history.Â
Â
In addition to the two All-America honors, Lewis received Sun Belt Player and Newcomer of the Year honors in May. He finished the regular season ranked among the top 10 in the Sun Belt in seven offensive categories, including leading the league in slugging, OPS, RBIs, runs scored, walks, home runs and total bases.
