JONESBORO, Ark. (6/1/16) – Arkansas State senior infielder Tanner Ring was named to the All-Arkansas Collegiate Team as the squad's shortstop announced Wednesday by Natural State Baseball.

A native of Batesville, Ark., Ring finished the year as the Red Wolves' leader in home runs (8), doubles (16), RBI (46), total bases (114), and slugging percentage (.496). He was also second on the team in batting average at .304, scored the second most runs on the team with 42, and had the third most steals on the team with eight.

Additionally, Ring tossed 12.2 innings on the mound with a team-best three saves and seven strikeouts. A third baseman by trade, Ring was able to play 26 games at the hot corner before becoming the team's starting shortstop for 24 games after some injuries occurred.

Ring was a First-Team All-Sun Belt Conference selection as a third baseman for the first all-conference honor of his career after picking up the 2016 Preseason All-SBC nod at the hot corner. His eight home runs were the most by an A-State player since Logan Uxa swatted 10 in 2012.
