Brannon Mondragon Named Southern Conference Player of the Year
After an astounding 2021 season, sophomore outfielder Brannon Mondragon was named Southern Conference Player of the Year.
Mondragon received the highest number of votes for the award as was voted on by the Southern Conference head baseball coaches. This is the first time since 2018-2019 when a Palm Beach State student-athlete was named Southern Conference Player of the Year and first time since 2017 when a PBSC Baseball player won the award. Malik Curry won the award for Men's Basketball in 2018-2019 and Baylen Sparks won the award for Baseball in 2017.
Mondragon annihilated Southern Conference pitching. In 19 conference games, Mondragon swatted 7 home runs and drove in 15 to go along with a .377 batting average and an absurd .494 on-base percentage. Overall, Mondragon finished with 11 home runs, 42 RBI, and a .405 batting average, which places him among the state and national leaders in those respective categories.
It is likely that Mondragon will be nominated for a place on the All-State/Region Team and there is a possibility Brannon will receive an NJCAA All-American nomination.
We are incredibly proud of Brannon's accomplishments.
