Buster Posey, Florida State's slugging catcher and Atlantic Coast Conference Player of the Year as well as 2008 CoSIDA/ESPN The Magazine's Academic Baseball Player of the Year, is the 22nd annual recipient of the Dick Howser Trophy, presented by Whitney Bank.

The St. Petersburg Area Chamber of Commerce and National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association (NCBWA) selected Posey in a vote of over 300 members of the NCBWA and Dick Howser Trophy Committee from an initial field of more than 700 nominees in 2008.

The presentation was made prior to the Seminoles' first game of the 2008 NCAA College World Series against Stanford at Rosenblatt Stadium.

Posey, a consensus All-America First-Team selection in 2008, is a 6-2, 200 pound junior standout from Leesburg (Ga.) Lee County High School.

The fifth player chosen in the 2008 Major League Baseball First-Year players draft by the San Francisco Giants, Posey enters the CWS with an NCAA-leading .460 batting average and is ranked in the top 10 in seven other different NCAA statistical categories. Through 66 games he ranks first in the NCAA with 92 RBI, 26 home runs (tied for first place), 114 hits, 88 runs scores, a .564 on base percentage and 220 total bases. He sports a slugging percentage of .887 and is on of the top defensive catchers in the county with just eight errors in 474 chances for a .983 fielding percentage.

Buster Posey Claims Brooks Wallace Award

The Brooks Wallace National Player of the Year Award Selection Committee has named Florida State All-American catcher Buster Posey of Leesburg, Ga., as the fifth recipient of the award, which was presented in a national telecast (FCS) on Wednesday evening at the Lubbock Memorial Civic Center.

Posey conquered an elite field of 15 other semifinalists and finalists including consensus All-American shortstop Gordon Beckham of Georgia and pitcher Brian Matusz of San Diego. He will be honored Thursday afternoon in the Fourth on Broadway parade festivities along with the College Baseball Hall of Fame Class of 2008.

The FSU standout was also named ESPN the Magazine/CoSIDA Academic Baseball Player of the Year for his classroom talents which follows many of the life tenets of the late Brooks Wallace.

The Wallace Award is a dedication to the memory of the former Texas Tech player and assistant coach. Wallace was a slick-fielding shortstop at Tech from 1977-80. A four-year starter, he was named All-Southwest Conference and All-District VII his senior year. He led the Red Raiders to their first-ever appearance in the Southwest Conference Tournament in 1980. After playing two years in the Texas Rangers organization, he returned to Texas Tech and served as a graduate assistant and later as an assistant coach.
