Three Receive All-Conference Honors, Stemp Named All-Pac-12
June 02, 2016 | Baseball
SAN FRANCISCO – Three Washington State Cougars received All-Pac-12 Conference recognition as voted on by the coaches, commissioner Larry Scott announced Thursday.
Second baseman Trek Stemp was named All-Pac-12 while pitchers Ian Hamilton and Ryan Walker each received All-Pac-12 Honorable Mention, as voted on by the conference coaches.
Stemp, a redshirt-junior, finished the regular season fifth in the conference with a .355 batting average and tied for second with 12 stolen bases. The Kennewick, Wash. native earns his first career all-conference accolade after posting team-highs with 65 hits and 32 runs scored despite missing the final nine games with an injury. Stemp also led the Cougars with 17 multiple-hit games including a three 4-hit games and recorded three different hitting streaks of 10+ games throughout the season. In Pac-12 play, he hit .324 and tied for second with six stolen bases while fielding at a .982 clip in 25 games.
Hamilton, a junior that moved to the starting rotation after two All-Pac-12 seasons as a closer, led the Cougars with 62 strikeouts and 87 innings in 15 starts. The Vancouver, Wash. native excelled in Pac-12 play, notching wins over Arizona State and at No. 14 Washington. Hamilton fired six strong innings against No. 10 Oregon State and later earned Pac-12 Pitcher of the Week after beating UW in Seattle, helping WSU to series wins over both. He went six-plus innings in six of his 10 conference starts including a season-best 7.1 innings at Stanford where he struck out a season-high nine. It is the third straight season that Hamilton has earned all-conference honors after receiving All-Pac-12 accolades as a freshman and sophomore. He now sits tied for ninth in school history with 70 career appearances, matching current Miami Marlin Adam Conley.
Walker, a sophomore, earns his first career All-Pac-12 accolade after posting the sixth lowest ERA (2.66) and batting average against (.212) in the conference during Pac-12 play. Of Washington State's 11 conference wins, the righthander from Arlington, Wash. had his hand in eight of them, recording four wins and four saves. For the season, Walker led the Cougars with a 6-3 record and five saves in 18 appearances along with a 2.40 ERA, a .210 batting average against and 50 strikeouts in 63.2 innings, all in relief. Walker's six relief wins tied for the second-most relief wins in WSU single-season history.
