By Georgia Sports Communications

ATHENSGa. — Georgia outfielder/infielder Charlie Condon has been named a preseason first team All-American by D1Baseball, it was announced Wednesday.

A 6-6, 216-pound native of Marietta, Ga., he posted one of the greatest seasons in school history in 2023. Condon was the consensus National Freshman of the Year. He hit .386/.484/.800 with 25 home runs and 67 RBI in 56 games. He led all freshmen in OPS (1.284) and slugging, while tying for the most home runs nationally among freshmen.

He is projected as a premium pick in the 2024 Major League Baseball Draft as the redshirt sophomore enters his third season at UGA. The Bulldogs are preparing for the season that begins Feb. 16 at Foley Field.

D1Baseball’s editors and national writers selected their preseason All-America teams with one guiding principle in mind: to identify the best and most valuable college baseball players for the 2024 season. Condon made their first team as a designated hitter.
