Arizona is the only Pac-12 program to land multiple players on Collegiate Baseball’s Freshman All-American team.

Right-hander Chandler Murphy and outfielder Mac Bingham were named to the squad, which was announced Tuesday.

Murphy, who attended Liberty High School in Peoria, posted a 2-0 record and a 2.70 ERA with 19 strikeouts in 16 2/3 innings in the Wildcats’ pandemic-shortened season.

Bingham, who attended Torrey Pines High School in San Diego, batted .361 with two doubles, one home run and seven RBIs in 36 at-bats.

Collegiate Baseball previously named UA sophomore catcher Austin Wells a second-team All-American. Wells is projected to be an early-round pick in next week’s MLB draft.
