April 28, 2005 ORLANDO, FL - The University of Maryland Eastern Shore (6-39, 1-17) entered the 2005 Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference Tournament weekend with high hopes of making a late season run to cap off what the coaches and players considered a very successful season and turning into a season where everyone would consider it an overwhelming success. This process began on Wednesday evening when the 2005 All-MEAC teams were announced at the annual conference tournament banquet. Senior Brandon McCabe was honored with second team All-Conference honors as an infielder, while junior Craig Munch also received second team honors for his play in the outfield. McCabe finished the season as the team leader with a 349 batting average, a .424 on-base percentage, and a 586 slugging percentage. He also led the team with 16 doubles, six homeruns, 89 total bases and tied for the team-high mark of 30 RBI's with Munch. Munch, who missed the final week of games due to illness, finished the season batting .333 with 16 runs scored and 30 RBI's. Over his last 18 games he was hitting .409 as he collected 21 hits, including three homeruns, two triples, two doubles. He finished the season with four doubles, four triples and four homeruns. Munch had a career afternoon against Savannah State in which he hit two homeruns and a double, while collecting seven RBI's in a 13-9 victory.
