Kansas City, MO – As the 2024-25 Athletic Season has now completed, the NAIA has released all of the Spring sport All-America Teams. Webber Athletics has 10 athletes featured on these lists from four different spring sports, who all competed in NAIA Postseason Play.

From Webber Baseball, Starting Pitcher Blayne Huter and Relief Pitcher Noah Palmese both were honored with 1st team honors after dominating batters all season long. This selection is Huter's second straight 1st team performance, as he finished the season with a sub-2.50 ERA, while striking out 117 batters. He also hit the career milestone of striking out 300 hitters in his career in Babson Park. The senior from Sebring, Florida has been just about as dominant as possible in his time in the Green and Gold.

In Palmese's first season at Webber, he was dominant out of the bullpen. In 25 appearances, Palmese sported a sub-3.00 era with a 2.78, striking out 65 batters in 45.1 innings. He was 3-0 on the season with 13 saves, and his dominant fastball seared its way into hitters nightmares. This is Palmese's debut as a 1st team All-American.

From Webber Men's Lacrosse, Nick Sheaffer, Greyson Davidson, and Liam Murphy. Sheaffer and Davidson find themselves on the 1st team All-America team, while Murphy lands on the 2nd team as the goalie. Sheaffer delivered one of the best performances by a Webber Attacker this season, scoring 61 goals and assisting another 20 for 81 total points. He helped lead the Warriors to the best start in School History, as well as the first #1 ranking in School History as well. In addition to this accomplishment, Sheaffer was also named Appalachian Athletic Conference Player and Offensive Player of the Year.

Davidson put on a vintage performance as a defensive longstick, more than doubling his career totals in both caused turnovers, with 49, and ground balls, with 47. He also ripped a rare defensive goal while anchoring the Webber defense that shut down opposing offenses all season long, leading to the top seed at the AAC tournament. Davidson was also recognized as AAC Defensive Player of the Year for his incredible play.

Murphy was the Warriors' primary goalie for the season and quadrupled his save total from the previous season with 66. His eight wins on the year led the team and was a part of the historic successes of Webber Men's Lacrosse. Murphy also won Player of the Week awards from the Appalachian Athletic Conference.

From Webber Men's Golf, Vedant Sirohi was named to both the NAIA and the Ping 1st team All-America teams. Sirohi continued his reign as the Warriors' #1 Golfer, finishing in the top 10 of eight tournaments he competed in. Sirohi finished his season with back-to-back top 3 performances, at the SUN Conference tournament and then again at the NAIA National Tournament, where he finished as the highest individual in Webber Men's Golf history. This is Sirohi's second straight 1st team selection.

From Webber Women's Beach Volleyball, pairs Delanie Johnson and Abby Baxter and Nadia Reid and Kiersten Tisdale. Both pairs were recognized on the NAIA All-America 2nd team. These four ladies were partly responsible for both of Webber Women's Beach Volleyball's four-peats this year, winning the SUN Conference Tournament for the fourth year in a row, as well as the AVCA Small College Beach National Championships for the fourth year in a row.

Webber Athletics is proud of each and every one of these athletes who have represented their institution on the highest stage.
