The 5-5 senior rightfielder hung up a >368 average in conference action, and a .326 mark in 21 games over the season to lead in both. Ablon also led the team in runs scored, hits and doubles. He is among seven Aggies who cracked the .300 circle in league batting. Third baseman Joe Schero ranks behind Ablon with a .354 average in loop contests.
