Hensley, a fourth round selection by the Seattle Mariners in the 2008 June Draft, was the 2008 Southern Conference Pitcher of the Year and First Team All-SoCon selection after compiling a 10-2 record and 3.59 ERA in 16 appearances.  The right-handed throwing Hensley hurled 92.2 innings, striking out 99 hitters while issuing only 38 walks on his way to Third Team Louisville Slugger TPX All-America honors.  The 99 K's are the fourth-most in Elon history.  Opponents hit just .236 off of him in 2008.  He was also a NCCSIA All-State selection and a Second Team All-Ping! Baseball honoree.

 

For his career, Hensley holds Elon's record for strikeouts, fanning 302 hitters in three seasons.  He posted a career mark of 24-12, the fourth most victories ever by an Elon hurler. 

College World Series participants Miami and North Carolina highlighted the All-Atlantic Region First and Second Teams with five honorees apiece.  Coastal Carolina followed with three recipients, while Elon, Florida State and Georgia Southern each had two.
