STILLWATER – Oklahoma State's Carson Benge and Nolan Schubart have been tabbed Preseason All-Americans heading into the 2024 season.
Schubart, a sophomore outfielder, was named to the NCBWA Preseason All-America First Team and collected second-team honors from D1Baseball.com.
A two-way standout, Benge made a pair of teams as a utility player as he garnered Preseason All-America Third Team accolades from Baseball America and Perfect Game.
Benge was a Freshman All-American and All-Big 12 First Team performer in his first collegiate season in 2023, and he was also a semifinalist for the John Olerud Two-Year Player of the Year Award. The outfielder led the Cowboys with a .345 batting average to go along with seven home runs, 17 doubles and 43 RBIs. On the mound, the right-hander made 10 starts and was 2-2 with a 6.69 ERA and 35 strikeouts in 35 innings of work.
Schubart is coming off a standout season in which he earned multiple All-America and Freshman All-America honors and was the Big 12 Co-Freshman of the Year and an All-Big 12 First Team honoree.
A native of Michigan, Schubart posted a .338 batting average and a team-high 20 doubles and added 17 home runs and 74 RBIs. Among all NCAA Division I freshmen in 2023, Schubart ranked second in RBIs, third in doubles, sixth in total bases (144), walks (43) and slugging percentage (.667) and seventh in homers.
OSU opens the season with a weekend series at Sam Houston beginning Feb. 16.
