The University of Minnesota Crookston baseball program had a pair of student-athletes named to the All-NSIC teams as released by the conference office. Josh Dykhoff (Jr., RHP/DH, Wadena) was named to the All-NSIC First Team, while Dylan Debilzen (Fr., OF, Parkers Prairie) was selected to the All-NSIC Second Team and the All-NSIC Defensive Team.

The Golden Eagles have had 28 players receive 41 All-NSIC accolades. In addition, 22 of the honorees have come in the last 11 seasons during the Steve Gust era (since 2015).

Dykhoff was selected as a pitcher/utility for his prowess on the mound, and as a designated hitter/first baseman. Dykhoff is hitting .333, with 43 runs scored, 13 doubles, 13 home runs, and 55 RBI. Dykhoff has a team-high 1.059 OPS, and a .627 slugging percentage. On the mound, Dykhoff has been one of the national leaders in strikeout/walk ratio. He has 79 strikeouts, to just six walks. He has a 6-5 mark and a 3.27 ERA in 77 innings, with five complete games, and two shutouts. Dykhoff was NSIC Freshman of the Year in 2023, and an All-NSIC Second Team selection in 2023, and 2024. He joins Jake Hjelle as the only three-time members of the All-NSIC First or Second Teams.

Debilzen had an outstanding debut season for the Golden Eagles. He hit a team-high .369, with 47 runs scored, 13 doubles, three triples, one home run, and 28 RBI.
