CHARLOTTE – Charlotte Baseball's Blake Gillespie was named a Third Team All-American by Perfect Game and a Second Team Atlantic All-Region selection by the ABCA/Rawlings on Tuesday (June 10).
With the Perfect Game citation, Gillespie becomes the 13th All-American in Charlotte Baseball history and the second selected by Perfect Game, joining the Niners' most recent All-American in Cam Fisher. Gillespie's Atlantic All-Region selection makes him the 16th All-Region selection in program history but just the fourth pitcher to earn the honor.
"Blake Gillespie's All-America honor is a reflection of what happens when talent meets discipline and a deep commitment to improvement," head coach Robert Woodard said.
