1994 College Baseball All-America Team

The team includes Jason Varitek (left), who has caught a Major League Baseball record four no-hitters, and Nomar Garciaparra (right), who was an American League Rookie of the Year, two-time batting champion and six-time All-Star.

This is a list of college baseball players named first team All-Americans for the 1994 NCAA Division I baseball season. From 1994 to 1996, there were four generally recognized All-America selectors for baseball: the American Baseball Coaches Association, Baseball America, Collegiate Baseball Newspaper, and the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association. In order to be considered a "consensus" All-American, a player must have been selected by at least three of these.
