Justin Campbell was named a Freshman All-American by Collegiate Baseball last season. So he is ineligible to be named to the Freshmen All-American team this year. The NCAA allowed baseball players another year of eligibility after the abbreviated season in 2020 because of the COVID-19 pandemic. This allowed Freshmen from last season to remain Freshmen this season as far as their athletic eligibility. Collegiate Baseball was the only publication to pick a Freshmen All-American team last year as well as a regular All-American team for NCAA Div. I. There were 13 COVID-19 Freshmen who had terrific numbers this season but are not eligible because they have already received Freshmen All-American honors by our publication last season.

Campbell has emerged as the ace of the OSU pitching staff. In 13 appearances (12 starts), he is 7-1 with a 2.08 ERA and 100 strikeouts in 78 innings of work. A right-hander who was named to the All-Big 12 First Team as both a pitcher and utility player, Campbell is second in the Big 12 in ERA and fifth in strikeouts, and he is the 15th pitcher in OSU history to record 100 strikeouts in a season. Campbell has recorded double digits in strikeouts in five of his 12 starts this season, including racking up a career-high 14 punchouts in seven innings in a win at Oral Roberts. On May 8 at Kansas, Campbell became only the third pitcher in the 110-year history of OSU baseball to throw a no-hitter in a nine-inning game. Seriously he’s not on your list?
