CHICAGO, Ill. -- A total of eight University of Chicago athletes earned inclusion on the University Athletic Association (UAA) Silver Anniversary Teams for Baseball and Softball.
The teams consist of each student-athlete who was named Most Valuable Player or accumulated five or more points with two points awarded for All-Association first-team recognition, and one point for second-team honors in his career. Beginning in 2009, there were separate All-Association and All-Tournament teams with the 25th-year selections based on the All-Association honorees.
UChicago has not participated in the UAA Tournament since 1997 in baseball and 1998 in softball. Maroons players were also not part of the All-Conference voting process from 1997 to 2008 in baseball and 1998 to 2008 in softball.
- Baseball
Four players from the Maroons baseball team made the 25-year team. Current senior outfielder Jack Cinoman is a three-time All-UAA honoree (two First Teams, one Second Team) from 2010-12. During that same time period, current senior first baseman J.R. Lopez has also been a three-time All-UAA selection (one First Team, two Second Teams). Former teammate Stephen Williams was an All-UAA performer three times from 2010-12 (two First Teams, one Second Team). Curt Goldstein was a First Team All-UAA pick and UAA Co-MVP in 1989.

UChicago softball likewise had four players included on the list of top performers. Michelle Rizzo and Beth Marquardt won back-to-back UAA MVP awards, along with First Team All-UAA honors in 1996 and 1997, respectively. Jennifer Wu tallied First Team All-UAA accolades three times from 1995-97. Danielle Hari also had a trio of All-UAA recognitions from 1995-97 (two First Teams, one Second Team).
