SIAC Baseball All-Conference Team Announced
Atlanta, GA—The Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SIAC) released its 2013 All-Conference Baseball Team as voted
by the SIAC Baseball Coaches Association.
The list featuring 20 first and second team players is led by Tuskegee University junior Cash Oliver, who was voted as SIAC
Baseball Player of the Year.
The native of Lancaster, CA was a major impact player for the Golden Tigers during the regular season, which advanced to the
SIAC Baseball Championship Tournament as the #4 seed out of the SIAC West Division. As the team’s third baseman, Oliver had a
.932 fielding percentage, while being a force behind the place with his .357 batting average. For the regular season, Oliver had 35 hits,
22 RBIs, five doubles and three home runs, while stealing 13-out-of-16 bases.
Stillman College junior Joey Falletta was named the SIAC Starting Pitcher of the Year. As the team’s ace, Falletta starred for the
Tigers and posted a perfect 5-0 record, which included Stillman’s first recorded no-hitter in school history. The Franklin, TN native
had one of the lowest ERA in the conference for starting pitchers with 1.86 and won several big games for Stillman, while leading the
team to the West Division title and top-seed for the SIAC Baseball Tournament.
Relief Pitcher of the Year was awarded to Stillman College junior Tyler Vails, who posted a 3.14 ERA this season, while
averaging 4.3 strikeouts on every appearance this season. Claflin University’s Sixto Guerrero was named SIAC Freshman of the year
after averaging .372 from behind the plate with 42 hits, 23 RBIs, eight doubles, and three triples for the year.
