The post-season awards keep accumulating for first-year outfielder Hayden Tsutsui. On Wednesday, it was announced that he picked up another All-Midwest Region award, this time receiving recognition from the American Baseball Coaches Association (ABCA).

Two days after Hayden Tsutsui was named to the 2013 D3baseball.com All-Midwest Region First Team and picked up distinction as the region’s Rookie-of-the-Year, the outfielder received an even bigger honor in being selected as the 2013 D3baseball.com national Rookie-of-the-Year.

Hayden Tsutsui burst onto the stage this season as he batted .462—the sixth-highest figure among all NCAA players (Division I, II, and III)—and ranked among conference leaders in nearly all statistical categories. His breakout season resulted in the outfielder being selected as the MIAC Rookie-of-the-Year. He was also the only first-year voted to the 27-player All-MIAC squad.

The season came to a close for the Carleton College baseball teams following a pair of losses to Saint Mary’s University. The Knights let a late lead slip away in a 6-4 game one setback, then watched a final-frame rally come up just short in dropping game two, 5-4. Seniors Ted Harmon, Henry Rownd, and Adam Zweber donned the Knights uniform for the final time.

Thaddaeus Gregory went the distance for the victory in game two as the Carleton College baseball team earned a split at Saint John’s University. The Knights’ pitching staff was roughed up in a 16-3 game one defeat, but Gregory pitched 7.0 strong innings as Carleton bounced back with a 9-4 triumph.

Juniors Ray Yong and Jeff Dsida each had four-hit days as the Carleton College baseball team posted a pair of one run victories, sweeping Macalester College by tallies of 5-4 and 4-3.
