Graham Tabbed as Baseball America Preseason All-American
January 31, 2022 | Baseball
NORMAN — University of Oklahoma infielder Peyton Graham was named to Baseball America's 2022 Preseason All-America First Team, it was announced Monday.
Graham is one of just three Big 12 athletes to garner preseason All-America recognition from Baseball America. Scouting departments of major league teams are polled for Baseball America's Preseason All-America teams, making selections based on performance, talent and professional potential.
A third-year sophomore from Waxahachie, Texas, Graham is on the Preseason All-Big 12 team and was a second-team All-Big 12 selection last spring. As the Sooners' third baseball and leadoff hitter last year, Graham batted .288 with 11 home runs, 11 doubles, 28 RBIs and 47 runs scored in 53 games. He also drew 30 walks and tied for the team lead with seven stolen bases. He had multiple hits in 16 games and multiple RBIs in five contests.
In 71 games over the last two years, Graham compiled a .305 batting average, .414 OBP, .528 slugging percentage, 14 home runs, 19 doubles and 38 RBIs. He has also totaled 86 hits, scored 66 runs, drawn 42 walks and nabbed 15 steals. He earned freshman All-America honors from Collegiate Baseball after the COVID-shortened 2020 campaign.
The Sooners open the 2022 season Feb. 18-20 at the State Farm College Baseball Classic at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas, where they will face Auburn, Arizona and Michigan. OU plays its first home game Feb. 22 against Wichita State and hosts Northwestern State Feb. 25-27 at L. Dale Mitchell Park.
