Ole Miss Baseball: Keenan Tabbed With More Postseason Honors

The 2018 Ole Miss baseball season may have come to a disappointing end but the postseason honors keep rolling in for some Rebels.

Even though the Ole Miss baseball season didn’t end the way we wanted it was still a great season. The mark of which is noted by the number of Rebels who were selected in the 2018 MLB Draft. There have also been a number of Rebels who have been receiving postseason honors and they keep coming.

Last week Ole Miss third baseman Tyler Keenan was tabbed with more Freshman All-American honors. D1-Baseball released its selections and Keenan was selected to the second team. This is the third Freshman All-American honor which the Clayton, North Carolina native has picked up for the 2018 season.
