JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Jacksonville shortstop Sammy Mummau has been named to the 2026 Brooks Wallace Award Watch List. The award recognizes the nation's top shortstop in Division I college baseball and is presented annually by the College Baseball Foundation.

The junior has started all 13 games for the Dolphins, hitting .250 with a .798 OPS, collecting 10 hits, 10 runs scored and nine RBI. His extra-base production includes two doubles, a triple and a home run, while also drawing five walks and four hit-by-pitches.

Defensively, Mummau has been a rock in the middle of the field for Jacksonville, touting  a .979 fielding percentage with 30 assists, 16 putouts and just one error while helping turn six double plays.

"Our staff is excited to get another year started looking for that special player to represent Brooks' Award," said Larry Wallace, co-chair of the Brooks Wallace Award. "We will dig deep to find the personal qualities as well as the physical attributes that best exemplify what we look for in the Brooks Wallace Award winner. It's early but this list is already shaping up to be a competitive race with some big numbers from some new guys and some familiar faces on the list as well."

The Brooks Wallace Award will be presented later this year by the College Baseball Foundation.
