DAHLONEGA - University of North Georgia baseball player
Crews Taylor was named to the first team All-Region team by the NCBWA Thursday.
The senior outfielder from Lawrenceville, Georgia, led the Peach Belt in home runs, doubles, runs scored, slugging percentage and total hits and was in the league's top 10 in batting average and RBI. His 23 home runs this season is tied for ninth-most in a single season in PBC history and is sixth-most in NCAA Division II this season. He was named PBC Player of the Year and first team All-Conference prior to being named All-Region by D2CCA earlier this week.
Taylor added 17 doubles and 56 RBI, scoring 69 times while posting a .758 slugging percentage and stealing 18 bases in as many attempts.
Named to the first team, Taylor is now eligible for All-American consideration.
