East Carolina junior RHP Trey Yesavage picked up his second preseason All-America honor as D1Baseball selected the Pirate ace to its 2024 Preseason All-America First Team.

Yesavage was also named a preseason First Team All-American by Perfect Game back in early January. He enters the campaign as the American Athletic Conference Preseason Pitcher of the Year and a unanimous selection to the All-AAC Preseason Team.

At the conclusion of the 2023 campaign, Yesavage collected a quartet of Second Team All-America honors from Baseball America, D1Baseball, Perfect Game and the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association. As a sophomore, he compiled a 7-1 record and 2.61 earned run average with 105 strikeouts and 23 walks in 76.0 innings of work. He also held opposing hitters to a .193 batting average.

In the final national statistical rankings of the year, Yesavage slotted 12th in WHIP (1.00), 17th in strikeouts per nine innings (12.43), 17th in hits allowed per nine innings (6.28) and 22nd in earned run average. He finished the season as the American Conference leader in opposing batting average, hits allowed and runs allowed while ranking second in earned run average.

Yesavage's 105 strikeouts tied for the 10th most in a single season in program history as he tallied double-digit strikeouts five times including a career-high 13 at Houston on March 31. He also turned in six quality starts and allowed more than three earned runs just once. In his final appearance of the year, Yesavage went 5.1 innings and surrendered just one earned run with seven strikeouts in the Pirates' 14-5 win over Oklahoma in their NCAA Charlottesville Regional opener.

ECU is slated to open the 2024 campaign Feb. 16-18 with a three-game home series against 2023 NCAA Conway Regional participant Rider from Lewis Field at Clark-LeClair Stadium.
