It comes at no surprise that Jac Caglianone continues to pick up more honors. On Monday, D1Baseball announced Preseason All-Americans for the 2024 season. Caglianone was given first-team honors.

Some of Caglianone’s honors last season include First Team All-SEC, Golden Spikes Award Finalist, Unanimous First Team All-American, BCA National Position Player of the Year, along with several others. He finished the season with .322 batting average with 33 home runs and 90 RBIs. When on the mound, Caglianone had a 7-4 record and 87 strikeouts.

Caglianone was not the only Gator to be mentioned. Brandon Neely was named to the second team. Neely moved into the closer position for the Gators last season and was a critical piece to the Gators roster. Neely had 13 saves on the season in 34 appearances. He posted a 3.58 ERA with 72 strikeouts. Some of Neely’s awards last season include First Team All-SEC, NCVWA Stopper of the Year Finalist, and a Second Team All-American by NCBWA.

Both Caglianone and Neely represented USA baseball this past summer as a part of the USA Baseball Collegiate Team.

The anticipation for the Gators 2024 campaign draws closer as opening day is on Friday, February 16th. The Gators have a three-game series against St. John’s at Condron Family Ballpark.
