COLLEGE PARK, MD -- Three members of the University of Maryland baseball program received all-region honors. Second Baseman
Sam Hojnar was named First Team All-Region, while
Eddie Hacopian and
Logan Berrier received Second Team All-Region honors.
Hojnar started all 56 games for the Terrapins at second base, finishing with a .275 average, 15 doubles, 16 home runs, and 57 RBI. Hojnar led the team in both home runs and RBI, while also leading the team with four multi-home runs games. It was a career year for the redshirt senior, as he reached career-highs in games played, at-bats, runs scored, hits, doubles, and home runs. Hojnar's 16 home runs on the campaign are tied for the 11th-most in a single-season in program history. Hojnar became the first Terp since Matt Shaw in 2022 to have consecutive games with two or more home runs in consecutive games after hitting two home runs against Illinois on April 28 and Towson on April 30. Hojnar set a career high for RBI in a single-game with six on April 3 against UMBC, and then tied that career high a week later in a road contest at Georgetown on April 9.
Hacopian had a strong 2024, finishing his second season in College Park with a team-leading .377 batting average, 16 doubles, nine home runs, and 51 RBI. Including batting average, Hacopian led the team in doubles, runs scored, hits, walks, and on-base percentage. Hacopian finished fourth in the Big Ten in batting average, hit (83), and finished tied for third in the conference in on-base percentage (.474). Hacopian also led the Terps with 26 multi-hit games and 16 multi-RBI games in the 2024 season. Hacopian's 83 hits in 2024 marks the second consecutive season the Potomac native had 80 or more hits in his Maryland career, and is tied for the 10th most hits in a single-season in program history.
Berrier was a leader in the Terrapins pitching staff for the entire season. Berrier finished the 2024 season with a 7-1 record, seven saves, a 2.81 ERA and 38 strikeouts. During the 2024 season, Berrier set new career-high marks in wins, saves, ERA, appearances, and runs allowed. The redshirt senior finished the season second in the conference in saves and tied for sixth in wins. Berrier's seven saves are tied for ninth-most in a single-season in program history, while his seven wins are tied for 17th. Berrier began the season with a 7-0 record, becoming the first Terps pitcher to start the season with a record of 7-0 or better since Ryan Ramsey began the 2022 season 10-0.
Maryland finished the 2024 season with 34 wins, which is tied with the 2002 season for the sixth-most in program history. Head coach Matt Swope set a record for the most wins for a first-year coach in program history, passing John Szefc who set the previous record with 30 wins back in 2013.
