RUSTON – Sebastian Mexico was named to the LSWA's All-Louisiana Second Team, per the association's release Monday morning.
With Mexico's selection, it marks the eighth-straight season a Bulldog was named to an All-Louisiana team under head coach
Lane Burroughs, who was LSWA's Coach of the Year in 2021. Since 2017, Burroughs has seen 32 selections to the All-Louisiana team.
Mexico led the team with a .315 average, .997 OPS, 12 homers, 57 RBI and slugged .602 in 45 starts out of the 52 games he played in his first year in Ruston, marking the fifth-straight season a LA Tech player finished the year with double-digit homers and 50+ RBI.
He was a Second Team All-CUSA selection and was a CUSA Newcomer of the Year nominee. He tied the single-game program record with a pair of triples at Sam Houston on March 21, a record that was originally set by Daniel Robinson on March 19, 1990, in a game played against Louisiana College.
Mexico's 2024 season was highlighted by a go-ahead three-run homer en route to a seven-run ninth-inning comeback to win the series at Middle Tennessee on April 12. He hit two grand slams in the month of April—one against FIU (4/5) and one in a midweek clash with Arkansas-Pine Bluff (4/29).
The left-handed slugger from Baldwinville, Massachusetts also led off an elimination game in the CUSA Tournament against Liberty with a blast over the right field wall.
