GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. – Madonna University teammates Kevin Zerbo and Will Kennedy were named WHAC baseball Player and Pitcher of the Week respectively in the first week of honors for the 2008 season.
Zerbo was MU’s leading hitter over a 10-game stretch that saw the Crusaders post a 7-3 record including seven straight wins while on their spring trip to the RussMatt Collegiate Tournament in Arizona. The junior hit .394 on the week (13-for33) with nine runs scored, eight RBIs and a pair of home runs to lead the Crusaders. Zerbo currently has a career best 12-game hitting streak. Kennedy was named Pitcher of the Week after two outings that saw him go 1-0 with a no-decision. Kennedy posted a career day in a complete game shut-out of Montana State-Billings. He fanned a career best 12 and allowed just two hits without a single run crossing the plate to even his season record to 1-1. He then appeared for one inning of relief work versus NCAA DII SIU-Edwardsville, fanning three of the four batters he faced. For the week, Kennedy struck out 15 over eight innings of work with two hits allowed and no runs. NOTABLE BASEBALL PLAYER PERFORMANCES NOTABLE BASEBALL PITCHING PERFORMANCES |
