BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – On top of one of the best freshman campaigns in program history, first baseman Jake Hanley proved to be the true embodiment of a student-athlete with his outstanding performance in the classroom during the 2024-25 school year. He was named the June Male Scholar Student Athlete of the Month.
Hanley, the Big Ten Freshman of the Year in 2025, led all freshman players in the Big Ten in hits (73), runs scored (48), home runs (14) and RBIs (52). He was named to the Big Ten All-Freshman Team and was a Second Team All-Big Ten selection. He completed the entire season without making an error while starting all 56 games this year.
