Gunnar Henderson leaves Morgan Academy with the biggest high school baseball honor in Alabama.

Henderson was named the state’s Mr. Baseball by the Alabama Sportswriters Association (ASWA) on Sunday night.

Henderson was named the AISA’s player of the year, hitter of the year and made the all-state team. The Auburn University signee was also named the state’s Gatorade prep baseball player of the year. Last week, Henderson was picked by the Baltimore Orioles in the second round of the MLB Amateur Draft.

Henderson said a lot of people helped make him successful.

“I want to thank my parents, coaches, teammates and anyone else who helped me along the way,” Henderson said.

Henderson hit .559 with 11 homers, 17 doubles, nine triples and 75 RBI as the Senators (30-2) reached the AISA State Championship series.

Henderson also landed several individual honors during the basketball season. Henderson, who averaged 17 points a game, made The Selma Times-Journal’s All Dallas County basketball team, named the AISA’s basketball player of the year and MVP at the AISA All-Star basketball game.
