Waco, Texas – D1Baseball has announced that Baylor outfielder Jared Mckenzie has been named to the Preseason All-America Second-Team.
McKenzie is one of the 54 selected honorees around the country to make the exclusive list.
The third-year sophomore looks to build off of a tremendous 2021 campaign in which he hit .383 with 10 home runs and 44 RBI. He led the Bears with 82 hits, 62 runs, four triples, and a 1.079 OPS and is currently Baylor’s all-time leader in career batting average (.389).
With this honor, McKenzie continues to add to his already impressive offseason, having been previously named a Preseason All-American by Collegiate Baseball Newspaper (second team) and Perfect Game/Rawlings (third team), as well as a unanimous Preseason All-Big 12 selection.
Baylor opens the 2022 season with a three-game series against Maryland starting on February 18, part of a seven-game homestand at Baylor Ballpark in Waco.
