Johnson Picks Up 2026 NCBWA NCAA Division 2 All-Region 1st-Team Honor

DALLAS -- Cal State Dominguez Hills senior second baseman Quinn Johnson earned his third 1st-team All-Region selection in 2026, this time by the National Baseball Writers Association (NCBWA).

This comes after Johnson's was named a 1st-team all-region selection by the American Baseball Coaches Association (ABCA)/Rawlings and the Conference Commissioiners Association (CCA) earlier this month.

With three 1st-team selections, Johnson now is eligible for All-America consideration from the NCBWA, ABCA and CCA.

Sophomore catcher Nigel Buckley earned 2nd-team NCBWA All-Region honors to join his senior teammate.

Johnson was a fixture atop the Toros lineup and in the CCAA top 10 offensively for a team that finished 21-24 overall and 13-19 in CCAA play.

He finished the regular season 3rd in slugging percentage and OPS (on-base + slugging), 4th in on-base percentage, 9th in batting average and 10th in home runs.

He also earned a 1st-team All-CCAA honor and a CCAA Player of the Week nod for the week of April 6 after the Toros split their series with eventual CCAA Champion Cal State Monterey Bay.

In that series, Johnson knocked seven hits in 13 at-bats, good for a .538 average and a 2.010 OPS.  He also boasted three home runs, five runs batted in, five runs scored, and two doubles in the four games boasting a hit and run scored in all four games. 

This is Johnson's fourth All-Region nod in Cardinal and Gold, earning two last season.

Buckley also made a name for himself this year, finishing 3rd in the CCAA in batting average, 7th in hits, 9th in slugging percentage, and 10th in both OPS and RBI.

The 2026 ABCA/Rawlings NCAA Division 2 All-America teams will be announced on Friday, May 29.
