ST. JOSEPH – The National Collegiate Baseball Writers have named Missouri Western infielder David Glaude a second team All-American.

Glaude became the first All-American for the program since Ryan Degner in 2014 by batting .403 with team-highs in hits (91), doubles (22), triples (6) and RBIs (74). His 10 home runs were also tied for second on the team and his 62 runs scored were second behind Orencio Fisher. The junior started all 58 games for the Griffons, primarily playing second base, but showing versatility as a third baseman as well. In the field, Glaude committed just seven errors all season with 116 putouts and 147 assists.

The Canadian (Quebec City) helped Missouri Western to its third ever appearance in the NCAA Central Regional and the second most wins (38) in program history. The team also broke single-season records for several of Glaudes team leading offensive categories: hits, runs, home runs and RBIs. In addition to this honor, Gluade was also named first team All-MIAA, first team NCBWA All-Central Region, first team ABCA/Rawlings All-Central Region and second team D2CCA All-Central Region.
