Nine baseball players from the Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association (MIAA) were selected to All-Region 7 teams by the American Baseball Coaches Association (ABCA) on May 28.

 

The teams are voted on by members of the ABCA and the process is led by the ABCA NCAA Div. III All-America & Coach of the Year Committee.

Both Calvin University's Patrick Gillen and Kalamazoo College's Harrison Poeszat represent the MIAA on the All-Region 7 First Team.
