Ramsey Named Capital One Academic All America Player of the Year

Florida State Seminole OF James Ramsey just received pretty much the most prestigious honor a college baseball player can receive. The Golden Spikes is the bigger award for baseball, but when measuring a student-athlete it is hard to top this one. James Ramsey won the Capital One Academic All America Player of the Year. Ramsey is just the 2nd Seminole to win the award. Can you guess the other? Yes, it is Buster Posey.

In addition to being the 2nd player to be named player of the year, Ramsey was obviously named 1st team All-America. He did this for the 2nd straight year. Ramsey becomes the 2nd Seminole to do that as well. No, the other one is not Buster Posey. It is actually Greg Gromek (70 & 71). What a great accomplishment by Ramsey.

James Ramsey will lead the Seminoles in the 1st game of the Tallahassee Regional in about an hour.
