COLLEGEVILLE, Minn. – Saint John's senior catcher Ethan Roe (Golden Valley, Minn./Blake) earned All-Region 9 honors for the second consecutive season on Tuesday, May 31.

Roe was named to the American Baseball Coaches' Association (ABCA)/Rawlings first team and D3baseball.com's third team. He earned second-team honors on both lists in 2021.

The SJU baseball program has now had 39 All-Region honorees since 2010.

A two-time All-MIAC honoree and a member of the 2022 MIAC All-Defensive Team, Roe played all 41 games and led the Johnnies with 12 homers – one away from his single-season, program record set in 2021 – a .678 slugging percentage and 49 RBI, the third-most in SJU history. He also led SJU in extra-base hits (25), multi-hit (18) and multi-RBI (14) games, while batting .404 (23-for-57) with runners in scoring position. Roe batted 7-for-13 (.538) with six runs scored, a homer and five RBI in three MIAC Tournament games.

He started all 20 games at catcher and tied for second in the league with eight home runs in conference play. He batted .351 (26-for-74) with 24 RBI and a 1.143 OPS in MIAC games. 

Roe ended his SJU career as the program's all-time leader in home runs with 25, as well as third in both RBI (104) and doubles (33), fourth in total bases (248) and 10th in runs scored (95).

The Johnnies finished second in the MIAC with a 15-5 record (24-17 overall) and made their 12th consecutive appearance in the MIAC Tournament in 2022. SJU's program record for home runs (39) lasted only one season as the Johnnies hit 51 this spring.
