i'm not going to spoil all the fun for you out there about tonight's award ceremony, but i must ask how a player like Luke Hopkins who's had the season he's had (both in conference and out of conference) is not atleast a 2nd team all-conference selection? i totally understand that ASU's geoff desmond would and has beaten him out for the first team all conference 1b, but how does phillip hawke get 2nd team over Luke? take a look at their stats.
27 Hawke, Phillip... .324 57-55 176 58 57 13 1 10 42 102 .580 57 6 41 6 .496 3 2 3-3
8 Hopkins, Luke.... .397 54-52 204 57 81 19 0 13 76 139 .681 39 0 36 4 .486 4 0 2-2
Luke has a higher batting average, more hits, more doubles, more homeruns, more rbi, more total bases, a higher slugging%, and fewer strikeouts. and look at luke's conference stats:
avg. ab r h rbi 2b 3b hr bb
.404 94 30 38 35 10 0 6 20
and those 35 rbi led the conference. i understand that conference's like to reward seniors, and luke is "only" a freshman but this is rediculous. i have other bones to pick about some of tonight's selections, but i'll bring them up later. can someone explain this to me.
