SANTA BARBARA, Calif. — UC Santa Barbara Baseball's ace pitcher, Tyler Bremner, collected his first regional and national honors of the season on Tuesday, as the American Baseball Coaches Association named the right-hander to their ABCA/Rawlings All-West Region First Team and Perfect Game named him to their All-America Second Team. This is the second year in a row that Bremner has collected All-Region First Team honors as well as Perfect Game All-America honors.
 
Bremner was a strikeout machine for the Gauchos in 2025, racking up a career-best 111 over 77 1/3 innings this season, tying Dillon Tate for the ninth-most in one campaign for UC Santa Barbara. On the way, Bremner broke Dan Yokubaitis' 42-year-old record for career strikeouts as a Gaucho. The San Diego native set the program's new career mark at 295, thanks in large part to his punchout-heavy end to the campaign. Over the final seven weeks of the season, Bremner turned in six double-digit-strikeout performances, including a career-high 13 in two different games. At the end of the regular season, his 111 strikeouts ranked eighth among all Division I pitchers and were the most of anyone pitching west of Oklahoma. His 12.92 strikeouts per nine innings also ranked 9^th nationally at that time, with his 5.84 strikeout-to-walk ratio ranking 14^th nationally and his WHIP (walks and hits per inning pitched) of 1.02 31^st in the country. Within The Big West, he nearly lapped the field, entering the conference championship with 27 more strikeouts than second place, which happened to be his teammate, Jackson Flora. Even after NCAA postseason play, Bremner still finished with a 16-strikeout lead atop the conference chart.
 
A projected first-round pick in this year's Major League Baseball Draft, Bremner is now a four-time All-American, having earned national honors from three different publications in 2024. Thanks to his inclusion on the ABCA/Rawlings All-West Region First Team, he is eligible to earn ABCA/Rawlings All-America honors, which will be announced on Friday, June 13. Bremner is one of nine Gaucho pitchers to earn All-Region honors and one of 10 to earn at least one All-America selection under head coach Andrew Checketts.
