BRIEF Falkson earns conference Rookie of the Year honors for Judges
The baseball team had two players named to the All-University Athletic Association Conference Team on May 8, highlighted by Rookie of the Year honors for shortstop Nick Falkson ’18. Falkson earned the Rookie of the Year honors by being named to the Second Team All-UAA squad, one of four first-years to be named to the team. New York University freshman pitcher Matthew Millus and University of Rochester freshman infielder Tyler Schmidt were also named to a spot on the All-UAA Second Team. Falkson claimed the starting role at shortstop from the start of the season and went on to play in all 33 games this year. The rookie led the team in most major offensive categories, posting a .373 batting average, a .453 slugging percentage and a .548 on base percentage. Falkson posted a season-best and team-high 16 game hitting streak to begin the season that earned him All-UAA Tournament honors in early March. Falkson posted his best line in a 12-10 loss to Emory University on March 11, going 4-for-5 with a double and a walk while scoring a pair of runs. He spent the majority of the year hitting in the number two spot, finishing second in runs scored (21) to outfielder Liam O’Connor ’16. O’Connor, the Judges’ leadoff hitter, was the only other member of the squad to appear in all 33 games, scoring 24 runs and collecting 44 hits. Falkson also finished the year with a .921 fielding percentage and helped convert 21 of the Judges’ 28 double plays on the season.
