Despite missing two months of the season due to a broken hand, Castanon was named Second Team All-West Region and an All-Conference Honorable Mention. He also shone in the NCAA Tucson Regional, going 9-for-18 in four games with 10 RBIs and five runs.
In the regional opener against Oklahoma State, he went 5-for-6 with a homer and five RBIs in a 14-4 Gaucho victory. Castanon was named to the All-Regional team.
Castanon was ranked 409th by Baseball America, with this assessment: “He’s a strong 6-foot, 195-pound infielder who just plain hits. He has solid bat speed, controls the strike zone and has a natural feel for the barrel. He crushes fastballs, stays on breaking balls and drives the ball with authority from center to left field. He began tapping into power more this year and hit a career-high eight home runs.”
