DALLAS, Texas – After earning his first career Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference Player of the Week Award on Tuesday, redshirt freshman
Caleb Stubbings moves on to be named NCBWA National and Regional Hitter of the Week, as announced by the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association.
Stubbings posted monster numbers at the plate to help UCCS Baseball notch their first series sweep of the season against Colorado Christian University. The starting first baseman hit .526 (10-for-19) with five home runs, a double, and 17 RBI to boast a stellar 1.868 OPS behind a 1.368 slugging percentage. Stubbings had a home run and at least three RBI in all four games as started the series by going yard twice for his second straight multi-home run game of the season. He then followed it up with another 3-for-5 day in game two for a series-high six RBI, which included a two-run home run.
Stubbings and the Mountain Lions will look to keep the momentum going into this weekend's road series as they visit Adams State University with game one scheduled for tomorrow afternoon at 1 p.m.
