Reynolds was a third-team All-American pick by Perfect Game and a second team pick on the all-South Region team by the American Baseball Coaches Association on Tuesday. He was also named a Third Team All-American by Collegiate Baseball earlier this postseason.

Reynolds, who recently signed a professional contract with the New York Mets, was the top offensive performer for the Razorbacks this season. He led Arkansas in batting average (.323), home runs (7) and runs batted in (45) this season. He also led the Razorbacks in runs scored (48), doubles (20), total bases (117), slugging percentage (.498), walks (40), on-base percentage (.427) and stolen bases (16).

Named to the SEC All-Defensive Team for his work at third base, Reynolds had a .950 fielding percentage, committing just 10 errors. Reynolds was also an all-SEC selection in his final season with Arkansas.
