Four members of the Northern Kentucky University baseball team have earned recognition on All-Horizon League teams. NKU’s Will Haueter garnered second team distinction, while Noah Fisher, Sam Hedges and Jayden Wakeham were named to the all-freshman team.

This marks the second straight season that Haueter has earned a spot on an all-league team after the redshirt senior was a first team member last year. Haueter leads the Norse and ranks 13th in the league with a .310 batting average and his 40 runs scored are the 10th-highest in the league standings. His 37 runs batted in are second-most on the team as well.

Fisher has earned 48 starts in 50 games played for NKU, batting .229 with 23 runs and 11 RBI.
