EVANSVILLE, Ind. – University of Southern Indiana senior catcher Micajah Wall was named first team All-Ohio Valley Conference in a release Tuesday after a vote of the league's head coaches and each institution's athletic media coordinators.
 
The first team All-OVC honor is the first of Wall's career and the third for the Screaming Eagles in the last two seasons.
 
Wall is fifth on USI and a top 30 hitter in the OVC this season, hitting .309 overall (51-165) with a team-high five home runs and second-ranked 45 RBI in 48 contests this spring. He also had 32 runs scored, five doubles, a triple, and four stolen bases.
 
The six-foot-six catcher recorded 16 multi-hit and 11 multi-RBI games.
 
In OVC action, Wall started 26 of the 29 conference games, hitting .337 with a team-high 20 RBI. He also tied for first on the squad with three home runs and 21 runs scored.
 
Wall and USI start OVC Championship action at 3 p.m. (or one hour following the completion of game one due to weather) Tuesday at Mtn Dew Park in Marion, Illinois. The Eagles, seeded eighth, play Morehead State, the fifth seed, in the second game.
