BOCA RATON, Fla. – Baseball America and D1Baseball each released their respective Preseason All-America teams on Monday. Florida Atlantic 1B/OF
Nolan Schanuel was included as a selection by both publications with first team recognition from Baseball America and a third team nod from D1. Schanuel is now up to four All-America selections this preseason.Â
Â
The run started in mid-December when the Boynton Beach product earned a third team nod from Collegiate Baseball Newspaper. That was followed by a first team selection from Perfect Game USA on January 6. Perfect Game also recognized Schanuel on its Preaseason All-C-USA team and named him as the league's Top Prospect for the 2023 MLB Draft.
Â
Schanuel now joins Tyler Frank (2018) and Jeff Fiorentino (2004) as previous Owls who have been named as a Preseason All-American by three or more publications. Frank (now a member of the Tampa Bay Rays organization) is the only other former FAU player to be a four-time Preseason All-American.
