Week 6 may have been the most productive week of the young college season for a number of our alumni.  The pitchers were excellent and bats were hot.  There were several players in the running for top honors this week, which was highlighted by a 1st collegiate win on the mound and a breaking of a school record.  Couldn’t be more proud this week of all of our guys getting it done at the collegiate level.  

Games Played March 17 – March 23

Pitcher of the Week: Adam Switalski – Lipscomb University 

Adam earned his 1st collegiate victory on the mound this week as he picked up the win vs. Bellarmine University.  In his outing Switalski worked 4.1 innings, allowing 3 hits and didn’t allow a run with 1 strikeout.  Congrats Adam.  

Hitter of the Week:  Dylan Nevar – Western Michigan

Dylan has been the epitome of consistency during his four years at Western Michigan.  This past weekend Dylan broke the career record for RBI’s at Western Michigan University.  What an amazing accomplishment.  On the week Nevar went 8 for 16 at the plate, scoring 5 runs, added 8 RBI’s with a Home-run.
