Tommy Harrison, a junior outfielder for Miami University, has been recognized as the Mid‑American Conference Baseball Player of the Week for the third time this season, a testament to his dominant performance in a recent series.
A Week of Power Hitting
During the three‑game stretch against Akron, Harrison launched four home runs, driving in 13 runs while scoring seven himself. He went 9‑for‑15 at the plate, posting a slugging percentage of 1.400, and added a grand slam on Thursday, a two‑run homer and a solo shot on Friday, and a three‑run blast on Saturday.
The RedHawks clinched their second straight regular‑season MAC title, cementing their status as the No. 1 seed heading into the conference tournament.
Tournament Outlook
Miami will open the MAC Tournament on Thursday, May 21 at 2 p.m. in Avon, Ohio, where they will face a formidable opponent in front of a home crowd eager to see the team extend its winning streak.
