GREENVILLE, S.C. – The National Christian College Athletic Association (NCCAA) announced its 2022-23 Scholar-Athletes for baseball on Thursday night as the MACU baseball program placed a record 17 student-athletes on the esteemed list.

To receive NCCAA Scholar-Athlete recognition, a student-athlete must be a junior by academic standing, maintain a 3.40 cumulative grade-point average and have completed at least one semester at the nominating institution while competing during the current season.

MACU is academically one of the strongest programs in the nation, lauding the second-most scholar-athletes out of the 49 members of the NCCAA.

Under the leadership of head coach Brett Stanton, the MACU baseball program has produced not only its best teams on the field, but academically as well as the Evangels earned a then program record 13 NCCAA Scholar-Athletes during the 2022 season in Stanton's second year at the helm.
