BEVERLY, Mass. – Endicott baseball student-athlete Kevin Gould (Rollinsford, N.H.) has been named to the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA) Academic All-America® Division III Baseball Third Team, as announced by the organization earlier today.

Gould is now the second CoSIDA Academic All-American® in baseball program history – joining Michael DeDonato (Chelmsford, Mass.) on the list – and the 15th student-athlete overall to receive the honor in Endicott athletics history.

Additionally, Gould was only one of four student-athletes from the New England region named to this year's CoSIDA Academic All-America® Division III Baseball Team and the only student-athlete on the list from the Commonwealth Coast Conference (CCC).
