Zanon was also second on the team with a .393 average as he collected 86 hits with 20 doubles and 14 home runs while driving in 56. He also flashed his speed on the bases, finishing the season a perfect 27-for-27 in steals. He was an All-NAIA West selection as well as an honorable mention All-American.
Zanon is the seventh Warrior to be selected by the Mets and first since 2007 which is also the last time LCSC had a player taken in the 15th round.
