Hancock Pitcher Isaiah Ramos Named an All-American

Isaiah Ramos' sophomore season at Allan Hancock College has ended with the ultimate prize. The Righetti High School graduate, who had never been used regularly as a pitcher in his baseball career, has been named an All-American.

The right-handed pitcher earned a spot on the ABCA/Rawlings All-American Second Team on Friday. He was one of 12 pitchers and 36 players overall in the state named to one of three All-American teams.  Ramos is the first Bulldog in four years to receive All-American status.

Ramos enjoyed a breakout season on the mound for the Bulldogs. He went 9-0 with a 3.04 ERA. Ramos led the Western State Conference in wins and posted the highest single-season win total by a Bulldog in 15 years. The Righetti High School graduate was a utility infielder for Hancock his freshman season. During the offseason, he asked coaches to give him a shot a pitching and the request paid off. Ramos has verbally committed to pitch next season for Chico State, a Division II program.

Other postseason accolades for Ramos include All-Western State Conference First Team and All-Southern California Regional First Team honors.
