OVERLAND PARK, Kan. – Army West Point Baseball's Justin Lehman and Michael Delph have been named to the John Olerud Two-Way Player of the Year Award Watch List.
Nationally, 35 players have been named to the watch list.
The award is named for former Washington State University standout John Olerud, who achieved success both as a first baseman and left-handed pitcher during the late 1980s. He was inducted into the National College Baseball Hall of Fame in 2007. The award will be presented by the College Baseball Foundation later this year.
In 2025, Lehman is carrying a 4.36 ERA and .247 AVG into Army's April 16 game vs. Holy Cross. The native of Fort Mill, S.C. has pitched in nine games, all starts, and hit his first home run of the season vs. Fairfield March 26.
Lehman was named the 2025 Preseason Patriot League Pitcher of the Year and was the 2024 Patriot League Pitcher of the Year.
Delph—a freshman—has made two starts on the mound this year, plus six at first base. Through 4.2 innings pitched, the Knoxville, Tenn. native has yet to allow a run.
The winner of the 2025 John Olerud Two-Way Player of the Year Award will be announced on June 17.
