University of Saint Francis (Hartford City, Indiana) senior Tyler Gregory leads 2013 USF All-Crossroads League baseball team selections after the right-fielder led the CL in home runs and RBI during the regular season.
King's Kyle McKay was also a first-team selection.
Gregory finished with nine home runs and 49 RBI during regular-season play becoming the first player from USF to lead the league in home runs as well as RBI in the 50-year history of the USF baseball program. Including post-season play, Gregory led the CL in home runs with nine and tied for first in RBI with 50. The 5-foot-10 right-hander set a USF single-season record for stolen bases with 20 this season (he was caught stealing once) and set a USF career record for doubles finishing with 43.
McKay pitched, played first and served as designated hitter in his first season at USF. He tied with Rydell for most wins on the pitching staff with five. He led USF pitchers in strikeouts with 52, games started (11), complete games (6) and innings pitched (67 1/3). He posted a 5-5 record. He also batted .316 in 38 games, led USF in doubles with 12, hit three home runs and finished second in RBI behind Gregory with 35.
