PHILADELPHIA - Nick Struble of Rowan has been chosen to the 2025 Philly-SIDA Academic All-Area Baseball Team, joining 11 other student-athletes in the team that was selected through voting conducted by the sports information offices of 30 institutions in the Philadelphia metropolitan area.
 
The junior finance major batted .400 in 40 games played, while making 31 starts. The designated hitter/first baseman put up career-best numbers of 33 runs, 46 hits and three home runs, while posting eight doubles. Among Struble's highlights of the season were a three-run home run in a win over Stockton and a 4-for-8 effort with three RBI and a double in a sweep of Ramapo.
 
A three-time Rowan Scholar-Athlete of Distinction, Struble was inducted into the Chi Alpha Sigma National Student-Athlete Honor Society for 2024-25.
 
Rowan (38-12) recorded its most wins under head coach Mike Dickson and the third most in school history. The nationally-ranked Profs reached the NCAA Division III World Series for the sixth time and posted two wins before falling to national champion Wisconsin-Whitewater.
