SEGUIN, Texas — Texas Lutheran first baseman Tyler Post (San Antonio/Johnson) picked up his first career All-America honor, earning a spot on the ABCA/Rawlings All-America Third Team Thursday night, as selected by members of the ABCA All-America committees.
Post, a San Antonio native, wrapped up a record-setting season as the Bulldogs’ first baseman etched his name among the single-season leaders in TLU Baseball history. His 75 RBIs rank as the most in TLU’s Division-III era and third most all-time while his 1.70 RBI/Game are the most all-time. His 16 home runs rank fourth all-time, second most in the Division-III era while his .769 slugging percentage ranks fifth all-time.
Post was named SCAC Player of the Year and was a First Team All-SCAC selection this season. Post led the SCAC in home runs (16), RBI (75), runs (45), total bases (123), and slugging percentage (.769). He was also second in triples (three), hits (58) and doubles (11) and fifth in batting average (.362) and on-base percentage (.449). Post ranks second in NCAA Division-III with 75 RBI and eighth in home runs with 16. With 16 home runs this season, Post moved into sole possession of third place on the TLU Baseball all-time home run list with 38 career home runs, trailing former teammate Tyler Cauley (2017-2021, 41) by three for second place.
Despite TLU’s runner-up finish at the SCAC Championship Tournament, Post put on a show. Post set the new SCAC single-tournament record with RBIs with 13 and tied the single-tournament home run record with four to earn a spot on the SCAC All-Tournament team.
Post has also earned First Team All-Region 10 Honors from the ABCA as well as Second Team All-Region 10 honors from D3baseball.com.
