He entered the College World Series with a whopping batting average of .411 with 33 home runs (second in the nation only to Georgia's Charlie Condon) and 68 RBIs.

Caglianone also a part of Florida's starting rotation. His 4.76 ERA might leave something to be desired, but his 5-2 record vindicates him.
