2009 College Baseball All-America Team

This is a list of college baseball players named first team All-Americans for the 2009 NCAA Division I baseball season. From 2006 to 2010, there were five generally recognized All-America selectors for baseball: the American Baseball Coaches Association, Baseball America, Collegiate Baseball Newspaper, the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association, and Rivals.com. In order to be considered a "consensus" All-American, a player must have been selected by at least three of these.

2009 All-Americans included 2010 Major League Baseball draft #1 pick Stephen Strasburg (left) and Seattle Mariners second basemen Dustin Ackley (right).
