Feather River Well Represented on All-Region, All-GVC Teams
The 2026 ABCA/Rawlings Pacific Association Division All-Region First Team has a very green flavor to it.
Feather River College had three playes named to the Northern California All-Region First Team, more than any other program. Kory Chu was selected as an infielder, Jake Dahl as an outfielder and Walker DesRosier landed as the Utility choice.
All three are now eligible for All-American honors, which will be announced next week.
The Golden Valley All-Conference Teams, announced last month, was also very well represented by the champion Golden Eagles.
Feather River had seven First Team members, two Second Team and a pair of special award selections. The awards were voted on by the coaches in the Golden Valley Conference.
Jake Dahl was a headliner as the GVC Player of the Year. The freshman outfielder from Chico hit .409 on the season, including a scorching .506 in league play. He had 27 RBI in 24 conference games and knocked home 35 on the season. He had 20 doubles, an on-base percentage of .472 and a .533 slugging percentage.
Luke Henderson won the Big Stick award. Henderson, also a freshman from Chico, drove in 49 runs and hit .368 on the season. Walker DesRosier was selected as the Freshman of the Year, hitting .409 with 45 RBI, a team-best 81 hits and 16 stolen bases. DesRosier is from Helena, Montana.
That trio were First Team selections, along with Kory Chu, Nick Anderson and pitchers Marcus Maeder and Jack Hanna.
Chu, a sophomore from Honolulu, hit .408 with nine doubles and 36 RBI. Anderson had ten two-baggers and hit .354 during his second season with the Golden Eagles (from Chico). He led FRC with 51 RBI.
Hanna and Maeder provided a deadly 1-2 punch for coach Terry Baumgartner's pitching staff. Hanna was 6-2 with a 3.20 ERA, and he was 5-0 in GVC games. He struck out 76 opponents in 84 innings pitched. Maeder was 6-3, with a 2.95 ERA in regular season games. He fanned 57 batters in 56 innings and walked just 18 through conference play.
