Goerold as a member of the District 1 First-Team will move on to the national ballot. He was named as a National Academic All-American last year.
The senior righthander, who was also named Liberty League Pitcher of the Week on Monday, has a 3.99 grade-point average in financial information analysis and will be moving on to graduate school in Virginia next year. This season he has posted a 4-3 record with a 3.91 earned run average. He is among the conference leaders with six complete games, and recently posted his third career shutout for the Golden Knights.
