COLLEGE PARK, Md. – Maryland junior right-handed pitcher Mike Shawaryn was selected as a preseason first-team Perfect Game All-American, the scouting service announced Monday.

Shawaryn put together the best season by a starting pitcher in Maryland history last season, piling up 13 wins with 138 strikeouts, both top single-season marks in school history. He led all first teamers in both categories.

The Carneys Point, N.J., native owns the most career wins in Maryland history (24) and became the second Terp in history to play for USA Baseball when he suited up for the Collegiate National Team this summer. He was named a first-team Perfect Game All-American in 2015 after holding opponents to a .202 average in 116.0 IP.

His 85 strikeouts in Big Ten action was an all-time conference record.

Maryland opens its 2016 campaign with a three-game series at Alabama starting on Feb. 19. The Terps advanced to their second straight Super Regional last season and finished with a school record 42 wins.
