GOODWELL, Okla. — Infielder Alejandro Hernandez of Oklahoma Panhandle State was recognized Tuesday on the College Sports Communicators 2026 Academic All-District® Baseball Team, marking the second consecutive year he has earned the honor.  
 
Hernandez, who earned OPSU's Male Scholar-Athlete Award as the institution's top-achieving student-athlete academically, maintained a perfect 4.0 GPA as a biology major through all four years of working towards his degree. The Guaynobo, Puerto Rico, native started 36 games in 2026, hitting .248 and posting an OPS of .744. He finished second on the team with 30 runs scored, and Hernandez came through at the plate with five doubles, two triples and a pair of homers. Spending time in the field primarily as a second baseman, the senior was involved in turning nine double plays while committing just four errors in 112 chances.
 
Five Aggies have now been named to the CSC Academic All-District Baseball Team during head coach Jared Mayeda's two-season tenure.
