America East Baseball Rookie of the Year

At the end of each regular season, the America East Conference names major award winners in baseball. Currently, it names a Coach, Pitcher, Player, and Rookie of the Year. With the exception of Rookie of the Year, which was added in 1996, the awards date to the 1990 season, the conference's first season of baseball. Through the 1996 season, the awards were known as the major awards of the North Atlantic Conference, the America East's former name.

Through the end of the 2014 season, Maine has won 19 major awards, the most of any school in the conference. Delaware, which was a member from 1992 to 2011, has the second highest total, with 17. Three other schools have at least ten: Stony Brook (16), Binghamton (13), and Vermont (10).

In the conference's 25-year history, a single team has swept the awards five times. Three instances came before 1996 (when the conference Rookie of the Year was added as the fourth award): Central Connecticut in 1990 and Delaware in 1992 and 1995. Since 1996, the only team to achieve the feat is Stony Brook in 2011 and 2012.

The conference's Coach of the Year award is presented annually to its most outstanding baseball coach, as chosen by a vote of the conference's coaches at the end of the regular season. The award was first presented in 1990 and was known as the North Atlantic Conference Coach of the Year award through the 1996 season, after which the conference adopted its current name.

In 2014, Stony Brook's Matt Senk won the award for the third time, after the Seawolves went 33-16 in the regular season and won the America East's regular season title. Senk has won three of the last four awards. 2014 was the sixth consecutive season in which the award was presented to the coach whose team won the conference's regular season title.
