Kelsey Jenkins named to NCAA D-I Eugene All-Region Team

Kelsey Jenkins (Wisconsin)

Wisconsin second baseman Kelsey Jenkins (Sabino) was named to the NCAA Division I Eugene Regional All-Region Team on Sunday. Jenkins batted .300 with a .462 on base percentage and scored three runs during region play.

This list was updated all year in an effort to recognize all former local prep stars who had gone on to achieve either academic and/or athletic awards at the next level. These are not high school awards but college and professional awards. NOT CHAMPIONSHIPS. If you are aware of anything I have missed along the way, please let me know.
