College Baseball Foundation Announces 2026 All-America Team
OVERLAND PARK, Kan. – Headlined by three-time national award winner Daniel Jackson of Georgia the College Baseball Foundation (CBF) unveiled its 2026 All-America team on Wednesday.
Jackson won the Buster Posey National Collegiate Catcher of the Year, presented by Hasty Awards, the Dick Howser Trophy and the Bobby Bragan National Collegiate Slugger Award after a record-setting season for the Bulldogs. The team also includes Brooks Wallace Award winner Dylan Carey of Nebraska, Pitcher of the Year Jackson Flora, UCSB and John Olerud Two-Way Player of the Year Evan Dempsey of Florida Gulf Coast.
The 2026 All-America team includes nine players who competed in the 2026 Men’s College World Series. This is the seventh-consecutive year that the CBF has selected an All-America team. The team is selected by members of the CBF award committees.
“This tremendous group of players exemplifies the highest level of ball played this season,” CBF National Awards Chairman Chris Snead said. “This All-America team is littered with award winners and finalists as well and it speaks to how impressive the group is."
The CBF All-America Team is part of an extensive awards program celebrating college baseball. Other winners of 2026 College Baseball Foundation affiliated awards include John Savage, UCLA (Skip Bertman Coach of the Year, presented by Marucci) and Gene Stephenson, Wichita State (Wayne Graham Award for Teaching Excellence).
