COMPLETE ABCA/RAWLINGS RELEASE
COMPLETE D3BASEBALL.COM RELEASE

---

FARMINGDALE, N.Y. | D3baseball.com and the American Baseball Coaches Association released their Division III All-Region Teams on Tuesday, and four Farmingdale State College student-athletes received Region 3 recognition on both listings.

Junior relief pitcher Michael Camardi (Syosset, N.Y.), senior starting pitcher Johnny Dougherty (Kings Park, N.Y.), junior outfielder Richie Heyder (Holbrook, N.Y.) and junior starting pitcher Derek Watts (Baldwin, N.Y.) all garnered All-Region accolades, with Heyder earning first-team praise in both releases. Camardi and Dougherty joined Heyder on D3baseball.com's first team, with Camardi and Watts receiving second-team kudos on the ABCA/Rawlings release. Watts and Dougherty collected third-team mention from D3baseball.com and the ABCA, respectively.

Heyder batted .441 on the season, good for the top outfielder mark in Region III and the 14th-highest average nationally, while adding five home runs, 35 RBI and 33 runs scored. He notched 18 extra-base hits, and finished the season with a 12-game hitting streak – including a 2-for-4 showing with a pair of solo home runs during FSC's stint in the Johns Hopkins regional of the 2025 NCAA Division III Baseball Championship. 

Camardi compiled a 4-0 record with one save, a 1.39 ERA and 34 strikeouts in 32.1 innings pitched. The lefty played a key role in the Rams capturing the Skyline Conference title, as he pitched seven innings of six-hit, one-run ball with seven strikeouts in an elimination game of the conference championship against Mount Saint Mary College (May 10).

Dougherty was the team's ace in earning his second-straight Skyline Conference Pitcher of the Year award, and third All-Skyline First Team citation in as many seasons with the program. The right-hander finished his senior season with a 4-4 record, two saves, a .207 batting average against and 79 strikeouts in 60 innings of work. Dougherty, a second-team Preseason All-America honoree by D3baseball.com, finished 2025 ranked 26th nationally in strikeouts per nine innings (11.85), 42nd in WHIP (1.03) and 97th with a 2.85 earned run average. The school's career leader in shutouts (four, along with six combined) and complete games (seven, tied) leaves FSC with a 10.33 strikeouts per nine innings average, ranking only behind current Detroit Tigers AAA farmhand Matt Seelinger (10.58). Dougherty ranks third on the Rams' career leaderboard with 186 strikeouts, and eighth with a 2.39 ERA.

Watts went 7-1 on the hill for Farmingdale State in 2025, notching a 2.59 ERA (No. 65 in Division III) and a .241 batting average against across his 59 innings pitched. He notched a pair of victories during the Rams' Skyline Conference championship run, with none bigger than his complete-game five-hitter with one unearned run allowed against top-seeded Merchant Marine (May 11) to force an if-necessary game in the double-elimination tourney. 

Head coach Keith Osik's Farmingdale State team went 26-16 this spring, including a 14-6 mark in Skyline play and its record-ninth conference title.
