After a fiercely competitive 2026 Texas high school baseball season across the Big Country and beyond, the Texas Sportswriters Association has released its 2026 all-state selections for Class 1A-6A.
In total, 24 high school baseball players representing 12 Big Country-area schools received TSWA Class 1A-5A first team, second team, third team or honorable mention all-state baseball honors.
Gordon senior Aiden Shank (Class 1A), Stephenville junior Trot Jordan (Class 4A) and Hamlin seniors Hagan Holland and Derrick Lechuga (1A) were all named TSWA First Team All-State Baseball selections.
Shank shined as both a hitter and pitcher during Gordon’s second consecutive run to the Class 1A UIL Baseball State Championship game.
The Longhorns’ ace tallied an 8-2 record on the mound with 105 strikeouts and a 0.54 ERA in 51⅔ innings pitched. He also posted a .361 batting average with 42 runs scored, 33 RBIs, 20 stolen bases, eight doubles, two home runs and a triple offensively.
Jordan, who was also recognized as the District 6-4A Offensive Player of the Year, batted .426 with 37 stolen bases, six home runs and five doubles for the Yellow Jackets.
Holland and Lechuga were both honored as TSWA First Team All-State picks in Class 1A after guiding Hamlin to the 1A state semifinals for the second year in a row.
Lechuga hit .450 with 31 RBIs, seven doubles, two home runs and two triples to help Hamlin finish 20-3 overall.
Holland, meanwhile, was one of the Big Country’s premier power hitters in the heart of the Pied Pipers’ lineup as well as a sharp defender.
