The Pacific International League (PIL) coaches have voted, and the verdict is clear: the 2025 summer season was one for the Fryer. Fresh off their dominant 32–9 championship campaign, the DubSea Fish Sticks completely overwhelmed the postseason awards, reeling in a franchise-record 13 All-PIL selections.
The awards showcase the roster depth that carried the Fish Sticks to the title over the Seattle Studs. Leading the charge for the champions was the ultimate double-threat, Matt Churchill, who captured the League MVP crown while pulling double duty as the All-PIL Utility player. Churchill anchored an explosive offense that led the league with a .814 team OPS and 104 stolen bases, while the DubSea pitching staff locked down a league-best 2.31 team ERA.
While the Fish Sticks grabbed the headlines, the Studs earned a solid six spots and the Honkers five, followed by three selections from the Blackfins. The final All-PIL roster highlights some of the best collegiate baseball talent across the Pacific Northwest:
- League MVP: Matt Churchill (Fish Sticks)
