The Buster Posey Award , formerly known as the Johnny Bench Award , was created in 2000 to honor college baseball 's top catcher in the National Collegiate Athletic Association 's Division I . The award is administered by the Wichita Sports Commission and presented after the conclusion of the College World Series . Originally named for Johnny Bench , it was renamed in honor of Buster Posey in 2019.
Schools nominate their catchers during the season to create the official watch list. A select committee of 20 individuals narrows the watch list down to the semifinalists. Two rounds of voting by Division I head coaches determine the three finalists and eventual recipient of the Buster Posey Award. The current holder of the award is Walker Janek .
