MEDFORD, MA (May 27, 2025) -- A pair of All-Region squads were released for Division III baseball, and senior outfield
Ben Leonard was named to both after his very strong campaign in 2025.
Leonard was named to the D3baseball.com Region 1 Third Team in the outfield, while also earning American Baseball Coaches Association (ABCA)/Rawlings All-Region 1 Third team as well.
The slugger powered the Tufts offense with a team-leading nine home runs. His long-ball total was the second most in the entire NESCAC and matches Steve Ragonese's total from the 2007 and 2008 Tufts seasons. Only Evan Zupancic's eleven home runs in the 2002 season exceeds Leonard's 2025 total.
He possessed more than raw power, as his 1.121 OPS including an almost .500 on-base average reflects. His 43 hits were second most for the Jumbos, and his speed helped him to a team-leading 11 stolen bases and 85 total bases on the year. His ironman effort in all 37 games this season helped him earn his first-ever All-NESCAC First Team award this spring.
