1996 College Baseball All-America Team

1996 All-Americans included two-time World Series champion Pat Burrell (left) and Unanimous 1996 & 1997 All-American Mark Kotsay (right).

This is a list of college baseball players named first team All-Americans for the 1996 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.
