One of the best sluggers in North Carolina Tar Heels history added another honor to his resume last week, as junior outfielder Mac Horvath was named a First-Team All-American by Perfect Game.

Horvath’s achievement marks the 27th time a Carolina player has earned first-team All-America honors, with the last recipient being Aaron Sabato in 2019. In addition to this honor, the American Baseball Coaches Association (ABCA) named Horvath to their All-American third team. These honors follow his recognition on the ABCA All-Atlantic Region First Team earlier in the month.

Horvath concluded the 2023 season with some impressive national rankings, placing 11th in the country in total home runs (24), as well as 20th in runs (73) and total bases (170).
