Mike Gustafson, President and CEO of the College Baseball Hall of Fame, will step down from a role he has held for almost 15 years. In 2004, Gustafson and a group of original founders created the College Baseball Foundation to help preserve and recognize the history of college baseball.

Thanks to the growth and success of the CBF’s three staple awards – the National Pitcher of the Year Award, the Brooks Wallace Award recognizing the top shortstop in the game and the John Olerud Two-Way Player of the Year Award – the CBF is once again honoring the top players from 2023 with its All-American team.

After winning the 2022 Olerud Award as a two-way force at Air Force, Paul Skenes transferred and put together one of the best seasons in LSU baseball history en route to earning 2023 Pitcher of the Year honors.

Leading Mayland to back-to-back Big Ten championships and a third straight regional, starting shortstop Matt Shaw put together a historic season, earning him the 2023 Brooks Wallace Award, which honor's the nation's top shortstop.
