Texas A&M third baseman selected by Washington Nationals in ninth round of 2025 MLB Draft
With the No. 261 pick in the ninth round of the 2025 Major League Baseball Draft, the Washington Nationals selected Texas A&M third baseman Wyatt Henseler. The former Ivy Leaguer joins six of his fellow Aggie teammates selected in this year's draft. With 217 games started during his collegiate baseball career, Henseler's experience on the diamond makes him a solid pickup for any franchise in the Major Leagues. He landed in Bryan-College Station, Texas, after playing four seasons at Penn, where he recorded 54 homers and 189 RBI over 161 games. After hitting a team-best .319 with the Aggies in 2025, Henseler will aim to carry that success with him to the nation's capital. As a member of a stacked 2025 draft class with former Aggies heading to their respective MLB franchise, Henseler is one of the most consistent. His .432 on-base percentage at Texas A&M is one of many statistics that jump off the chart, along with his proven ability to compete among the toughest conference in the country. His team-best 15 doubles and 16 multi-hit contests were pivotal aspects that contributed greatly, even though the season did not finish the way the Aggies wanted. During his sole season in College Station, Henseler showcased his ability at the plate and in the field. He finished the 2025 campaign with a .942 fielding percentage and helped turn seven double plays. Before achieving great success in the Maroon and White, Henseler finished his time with the Quakers as the program record holder in hits (232), runs (181) and doubles (50). He also set records in the Ivy League with his 54 career home runs, 189 RBI and 560 total bases. The former unanimous 2024 Ivy League Player of the Year is now headed to Washington, D.C., where he will look to bring his consistently outstanding ability at the plate to the Big Leagues.

They were held scoreless Saturday night for falling 4-0 to Oklahoma State, with Wyatt Henseler being one of the few Aggies with a hit.

He had one of the four hits on the night against the Cowboys but had no help from the rest of the lineup, who struck out 12 times. Even through this rough patch, he believes that if they believe in themselves and continue to work every day, they can turn things around. 'Yeah we're in a slump right now and we're trying our best to show up everyday positive and take the next step forward…' Below, you can watch Wyatt Henseler speak after the game.
