GREENSBORO, N.C. The American Baseball Coaches Association (ABCA) announced its 2025 NCAA Division III Region All-Defensive Teams for all ten regions on Thursday. Making an appearance on the Region 6 All-Defensive Team is Methodist's Brandon Mauger.
Mauger, a sophomore, was the Monarchs' everyday second baseman, committing just two errors in 43 games. One of the errors occurred after he slid over to shortstop, not his natural position, in a lopsided win over Westminster College.
Throughout the season, he recorded 115 putouts and 104 assists, giving him a .991 fielding percentage. He also helped turn 28 double plays, the second-most on the team.
