Austin Love Named First Team All-Region - UNC Athletics

CHAPEL HILL - Austin Love was named as one of four starting pitchers on the Atlantic All-Region First Team, the American Baseball Coaches Association announced Saturday morning.

He was chosen to represent the Tar Heel baseball program and was joined by Gavin Williams (ECU), Andrew Abbott (UVA), and Trevor Dilaite (Liberty) as the top starting pitchers in the region.

Love finished the season with 129 strikeouts, which ranks second all-time in North Carolina history behind Andrew Miller, who collected 133 in 2006.

Love, a First Team All-ACC selection, became the eighth Tar Heel pitcher to earn first-team honors since 1999. He joins Daniel Bard, Robert Woodard, Andrew Miller, Alex White, Matt Harvey, Kent Emanuel, and J.B. Bukauskas.
 
The Salisbury, N.C. native was electric in 2021 and turned in four performances in which he has pitched six-plus innings and recorded 10-plus strikeouts.
 
The ACC's leader in innings pitching (102.0), Love ranks second in strikeouts (129) and eighth in opposing batting average (.224).
 
Love's season was highlighted by a terrific performance against Georgia Tech on May 20, which yielded 9.0 innings, 15 strikeouts, two runs, eight hits, and zero walks.
 
It was his second complete game of the season after he went the distance on May 14, 2021 against Louisville.
