Kansas University placed a league-leading nine players on the Academic All-Big 12 Conference baseball team — six on the first team and three on the second.

Jayhawks named to the first team are seniors Mike Bessolo, Mike Dudley, Andy Scholl and Mike Zagurski and juniors Matt Baty and A.J. Van Slyke. The second-teamers are seniors Jake Kauzlarich, Clint Schambach and Scott Sharpe.

To qualify, players must record a 3.00 grade-point average or higher either cumulative or the two previous semesters.
