Hawk Nation has another reason to celebrate.

Hawk 1st Baseman Jimmy Dionne has been named to the 2025 ABCA/Rawlings NJCAA Division I Second Team All-American, marking a major milestone in both his career and the legacy of the HC Hawks baseball program.

The honor, awarded by the American Baseball Coaches Association (ABCA) in partnership with Rawlings Sporting Goods, recognizes the top junior college players across the nation for their outstanding performance, consistency, and impact on the field. Being named to the Second Team All-American is a testament to Dionne’s work ethic, talent, and leadership throughout the season.

Dionne, who has been a force at first base all year, not only delivered at the plate but also anchored the infield with strong defense and veteran presence. His recognition comes during a season filled with standout performances, big moments, and steady contributions that helped elevate the Hawks in NJCAA competition.
