NEW ORLEANS — East Carolina sophomore infielder Darryl Lawhorn has been named to All-Conference USA for the second straight year, the league announced this week as the 2003 C-USA Baseball Tournament was about to begin.

Lawhorn, a second team selection, was last season's league freshman of the year and a first-team member of the All-Conference squad. In 2003, he spent much of his time at shortstop after earning the 2002 accolades as a first baseman.

The Pirates also placed two players on the All-Freshman Team. Third baseman Mark Minicozzi and catcher Jake Smith were honored, marking the first year that ECU has had two representatives on that select list.

Lawhorn led the Pirates this season with a .325 batting average and 46 runs scored heading into the conference tournament. He had hit 13 home runs and 42 RBI while playing primarily at shortstop and in the outfield.

Minicozzi, a redshirt freshman, batted .263 with seven home runs and 31 RBI as ECU's everyday third baseman, while Smith, a true freshman, played in 39 of ECU's 55 regular season games hit .298 with nine home runs and 25 RBI.
