Mississippi State third baseman Ace continues to rack up All-American honors.
Earlier this week, Reese was selected to Baseball America’s All-America second team as a third baseman and, now, D1Baseball.com has selected him as a second-team All-American, too. It’s Reese’s fifth All-American honor.
Reese also has received All-American honors from the American Baseball Coaches Association (second team) and Perfect Game (third team). As well as being named the SEC Newcomer of the Year and first-team All-SEC.

Noah Sullivan was included in Baseball America as a third-team two-way player, but did not land in D1Baseball’s All-American teams.
Reese started 57 games during his first season at MSU and led the team with a .352 batting average, 80 hits, 18 doubles, 21 home runs, 66 RBIs, 163 total bases and a .718 slugging percentage. The sophomore from Canton, Texas ranked in the top seven in the Southeastern Conference in all of those categories. He also produced 25 multi-hit games, 20 multi-RBI games and five multi-homer games.
Sullivan was the lone Bulldog to start all 59 games this spring. The pitcher/designated hitter batted .345 with 70 hits, 16 doubles, 15 homers and drove in 46 runs. He also finished the year ranked third in the conference with a .475 on-base percentage and 10th with a .645 slugging percentage.
