1971 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: Well, it's a useful feature, adding an option doesn't seem *too* awful since lua is stupid and has no dedicated byte buffer type, and wait I only have two things to say.
gollark: ... how else would it work? Magic autodetection?
gollark: Er, `sendBinary`
gollark: `send_binary`?
gollark: ```java byte[] data = arguments.length > 0 && arguments[0] != null ? (byte[])arguments[0] : new byte[0]; computer.addTrackingChange( TrackingField.WEBSOCKET_OUTGOING, data.length ); channel.writeAndFlush( new BinaryWebSocketFrame( Unpooled.wrappedBuffer(data) ) );```^ Probably hopelessly wrong
