Four Lions Earn All-Louisiana Honors

HAMMOND, La. – Four Southeastern Louisiana University baseball players have earned All-Louisiana honors, the Louisiana Sports Writers Association announced Monday.
 
Starting pitcher Brennan Stuprich, catcher Conner O'Neal and first baseman Ryan Brome all earned second-team honors, while shortstop TJ Salvaggio was an honorable mention.
 
A native of Kenner, Louisiana, Stuprich compiled a 9-5 win-loss record, 109 strikeouts and a 2.90 ERA. He led the Southland Conference in wins, strikeouts and innings pitched. He also became the program's all-time leader in wins (tied), games started and innings pitched, along with finishing one strikeout shy of tying the SLU career record.
 
Stuprich previously picked up All-Region honors from the American Baseball Coaches Association (ABCA) and All-America honors from the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association. He was also named the Southland Conference Baseball Student-Athlete of the Year and the Southland Conference Pitcher of the Year, in addition to earning All-Southland honors.
 
O'Neal, one of the top power-hitting catchers in the nation, finished the season hitting .286 with six doubles, 14 home runs and 53 RBIs. The senior from Waverly Hall, Georgia led the Southland in walks (52), ranking fourth in homers, along with eighth in both RBIs and OPS (1.030). He ranked second in the conference with five sacrifice flies.
 
Brome finished the season hitting .355 with 12 doubles, two triples, 12 home runs and 36 RBIs. The senior from Katy, Texas ranked third in the Southland in slugging percentage (.690) and OPS (1.165), fifth in on-base percentage (.475), seventh in batting average, ninth in home runs and 10th in HBPs (10).
 
Salvaggio finished the season hitting .320 with 11 doubles, two triples, 13 home runs and 48 RBIs. The senior from Slidell, Louisiana ranked eighth in the Southland in hits (71) and home runs. He led the Lions with 50 runs scored.
