MORGANTOWN, W.Va. (June 13, 2024) – West Virginia University senior pitcher Derek Clark has been named to the NCBWA All-America Third Team.
In his first and only season with WVU, Clark went 8-3 with a 3.23 ERA and 91 strikeouts, all of which led the Mountaineers. He also led the team with 97.2 innings pitched which included four complete games, second-most in the country.
