JACKSON, MS- Millsaps senior infielder and starting pitcher Keith Shumaker has been named to the D3Baseball.com Preseason All-American first team. 

Shumaker has been named an All-American following both his sophomore and junior seasons. The Brandon, MS native hit .354 last season with 33 runs driven in while playing both corner infield spots for the Majors. 

The senior has also shined on the mound for Millsaps, going 6-1 last season as the Majors number two weekend starter. He posted a stellar 2.82 earned run average over 76 innings and 11 starts.

Because of his versatility, Shumaker was named to the first team in the utility position. 

This past summer, Shumaker was named a Prospect League All-Star while playing for the Danville Dans. Shumaker hit .340 with nine extra-base hits and 19 rbis in the wood bat league. He was the only Division-III player named an All-Star starter. 

Shumaker and the Majors start the 2015 campaign at home on February 13th when they welcome in Ozarks out of Arkansas. First pitch on is set for 3pm on that Friday.
