Tim Wheeler earns four All American Honors

College Baseball Camps

Sacramento State junior outfielder Tim Wheeler has been honored by four organizations, the American Baseball Coaches Association (ABCA) , Baseball America, the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association (NCBWA) and Ping Baseball, as a 2009 Division I All-American.

Wheeler, who was a preseason third team All-American, earned second team recognition from the ABCA as well as Baseball America. He was also recognized by the NCBWA and Ping Baseball as a third team selection. He was the first player to earn All-American honors for the Hornets since Harvey Hargrove earned third team honors in 1997.

The Sacramento native and El Camino HS product set many firsts this season for the Hornets, including becoming the baseball program's first-ever first round draft pick, after being selected No. 32 overall by the Colorado Rockies. Wheeler also became the school's first two-time first team all-Western Athletic Conference selection, hitting .385 on the season with 18 home runs and 72 runs batted in, setting the school's single-season RBI record in the process. He also broke the school's all-time RBI mark in just three seasons, boasting 142 in his career. Wheeler hit .457 with runners in scoring position, and .451 with runners on base, while amassing 15 stolen bases and five outfield assists. Wheeler ranked in the top 30 nationally in six categories, with his highest ranking coming in RBI.

The ABCA award, co-sponsored by Rawlings, comes from the nation's coaches, who nominated and voted players onto all-region teams, which were then compiled into All-American teams by a committee of Division I head coaches chaired by Monmouth's Dean Ehehalt. The Baseball America award is voted on by the staff of the magazine following NCAA Super Regional play. These awards are two of the most prestigious in all of college baseball.

The NCBWA is composed of beat writers and sports information personnel from around the country, and has been awarding an All-American team since 1962. A relative newcomer to the baseball world, Ping Baseball has been providing collegiate baseball news and polls along with naming All-American teams since 2007.

Staff
All camps at Sacramento State University are staffed with current Hornet coaches and players. We feel that working with people associated directly with our program helps the camper get a firm grasp on the principles and techniques taught to Hornet baseball players. On occasion, former Hornet players will join the camp as guest instructors.

Hornet Baseball Camps are designed to teach students solid fundamental baseball skills as well as to raise their level of understanding of the game of baseball. Our purpose is to provide each camper with the instruction and encouragement needed to develop individual skills to a greater level. In addition, we want the camper to be aware that individual skills are best utilized when they are incorporated into a team concept. We will emphasize how individuals work together on a field to form a baseball "team."

Q. What should I bring to my baseball camp or showcase camp?

A. Many times the camp itself will have a recommended list of items to bring to camp, but here are a few things to help you. All position players should bring a bat and glove. Look like a baseball player by wearing a hat, jersey, belt, baseball socks, etc. You need to look the part. If you are a catcher, have your own gear. Hitters, bring your bat and helmet just in case. Don't expect to use the college's equipment and you must be ready to go! Borrow something from a teammate or coach if you do not have one.
