Brian Waddle – NWITIMES

Franklin’s Logan Demkovich (Munster) became just the third player in program history to be named an All-American by D3baseball.com.

Demkovich, a catcher, was named to the D3baseball.com second team after setting the program’s single-season home run record and single-season RBI record (63). Demkovich finished fifth and 18th, respectively, in those categories nationally.

The Hammond native was also named an American Baseball Coaches Association (ABCA)/Rawlings NCAA Division III First Team All-Region 8 player and earned the region’s Position Player of the Year honor. He finished with a .347 batting average and added 15 doubles for the Grizzlies.

Demkovich is the first player in program history to be named the Region Player of the Year from the ABCA.
