The Missouri S&T baseball and softball teams had representatives on the District VII Academic All-District team for the 2008 season, with each team getting a first-team selection that will move onto the national ballot for the opportunity to be named to the ESPN The Magazine Academic All-America team.

Senior pitcher Matt Campbell, who has been one of the Miners' top pitchers for the past three seasons, was selected to the first team while Cody Bass, a junior shortstop from Chattanooga, Okla., was named as a second-teamer on the baseball squad.

On the academic all-district softball team, Kandi Wieberg was chosen to the first-team while third baseman Kelsey Musselman, named recently as the "Player of the Year" in both the Great Lakes Valley Conference and Great Lakes region, was chosen to the second team.

Campbell, who hails from St. Charles, Mo., was 3-4 this season with a 5.46 earned run average for the Miners, but finished his career at S&T among the all-time leaders in innings pitched, strikeouts, wins and earned run average. He finished second on the team this season in innings with 61 and recorded a complete game shutout against Rockhurst in late March.

Bass, who started in 42 games at the shortstop position, batted .285 with 16 runs batted in during the recently completed campaign. He scored 27 runs during the season and had a .364 on-base percentage. He is a two-year starter at shortstop for the Miners.

Wieberg, a senior from St. Elizabeth, Mo. who made the All-GLVC first team, finished the year with a .320 batting average, 10 home runs and 17 runs batted in from the leadoff spot in the lineup. She also had a .440 on-base percentage and .567 slugging percentage to go along with a team-high 16 stolen bases; her 32 walks set a new S&T single-season record and she is ranked among the national leaders in walks per game.

Wieberg had a record-setting career at Missouri S&T, finishing atop the all-time lists for doubles with 49, home runs with 34, runs scored with 169 and runs batted in with 105. Her 223 hits are second on the all-time list at S&T.

Musselman led the Lady Miners with a .422 batting average -- which was good for second in the GLVC behind the .430 mark posted by Wisconsin-Parkside's Amanda Miller -- while leading the league in slugging percentage, on-base percentage and home runs.

Musselman, a native of Springfield, Ill., had a school record 14 home runs on the year and drove in 47 runs, while posting a .755 slugging percentage and .500 on-base percentage. Her performance netted her two GLVC "Player of the Week" awards during the year and eventually first-team All-GLVC honors. She is currently 12th in NCAA Division II for home runs per game and also ranks 35th for runs batted in per contest.
