Washington's Kyle Conley, a junior outfielder from Richland, was named to the All-Pac-10 baseball first team for the second consecutive year.

Washington State had three players on the first team — pitchers Jeremy Johnson of Centralia and Matt Way of Sitka, Alaska, and outfielder Jared Prince of Poulsbo.

Stanford's Kellen Kiilsgaard, a sophomore outfielder from Auburn High School, was also selected.

Arizona State's Jason Kipnis was named player of the year, and ASU's Mike Leake was pitcher of the year.
