1960 College Baseball All-America Team
An All-American team is an honorary sports team composed of the best amateur players of a specific season for each team position—who in turn are given the honorific "All-America" and typically referred to as "All-American athletes", or simply "All-Americans". Although the honorees generally do not compete together as a unit, the term is used in U.S. team sports to refer to players who are selected by members of the national media. Walter Camp selected the first All-America team in the early days of American football in 1889.[1]
From 1947 to 1980, the American Baseball Coaches Association was the only All-American selector recognized by the NCAA.[2]

gollark: For example, the magic `select` thing, `make`/`new`, its horrible monotonic times hack...
gollark: It's actually complicated and relies heavily on magic like Python.
gollark: WRONG!
gollark: Generally, Go's attitude seems to be:- don't trust the programmer to do anything right but use magic all over the place internally- stop abstraction at all costs and make everything explicit- ignore all modern innovations in language design- bodge everything into being mostly right but not actually correct
gollark: Hold on.
