After winning first-team all-NWAC honors a week ago, LBCC baseball’s Ethan Kleinschmit, Gabe Brabec, and Aidan Dougherty have earned another set of accolades, being named 2024 Pacific Association Division All-Americans by the American Baseball Coaches Association (ABCA).
Winners for this particular award were selected from the top junior college baseball players in the NWAC and CCCAA (California Community College Athletic Association).
All three players will be leaving Linn-Benton this offseason, with freshman pitchers Kleinschmit and Brabec heading to Oregon State and Gonzaga, respectively, while sophomore outfielder Dougherty will join the University of Connecticut baseball program.
After strong careers as Roadrunners, all three players were able to leave LB on a high note as part of 2024’s NWAC Championship-winning team.
