TORONTO - Former ULM
outfielder Jon Prevost added one more honor to his impressive tally as a
Warhawk as the Canadian Baseball Network named the slugger to its 2009 All-Canadian
College First Team in a recent announcement.
Prevost, a native of Montreal,
Canada, led the Warhawks with 15 home runs and 20 stolen bases last season en
route to earning All-Sun Belt Conference honors. His home run total was the
fourth best in a single-season in ULM history as were his 70 runs scored.
A two-year starter for ULM,
Prevost helped lead the Warhawks to 66 victories in 2008 and 2009 - the best
two-year span for ULM since 2000-01. The Warhawks also won the 2008 Sun Belt
Championship and advanced to the championship game of the 2009 Sun Belt
Conference Tournament during Prevost's tenure.
The All-Canadian College Team is selected by a panel of 49 voters from
Canada and the United States. The panel includes coaches, executives, scouts,
scouting directors, former players, baseball media and the Canadian Baseball
Network staff.
This is the third straight
All-Canada honor for Prevost as he was named an honorable mention following his
junior season at ULM and his sophomore season at Seminole State.
The 2010 Warhawks open the
season in less than a month when they travel to Oxford, Miss., for a three-game
series against No. 22 Ole Miss beginning Feb. 19 at Oxford-University Stadium.
