Trio of Aces earn MVC Scholar-Athlete honors

ST. LOUIS - A trio of members of the University of Evansville baseball team have earned scholar-athlete honors from the Missouri Valley Conference, it was announced by the Conference office on Tuesday morning.

First baseman Tanner Craig captured first team scholar-athlete honors, while relief pitcher Drew Dominik and outfielder Mark Shallenberger each received scholar-athlete honorable mention recognition. Craig is the first Ace to earn first-team scholar-athlete honors since Josh Jyawook was named to the top academic team in 2016.

One of the best to ever put on an Evansville uniform, Tanner Craig concluded his Aces career with his best season.
