Jett Music of Campbell University has been crowned the Colonial Athletic Association’s baseball Player of the Week after a spectacular series that saw him hit .438 while launching four home runs and driving in 12 runs. His surge at the plate placed him among only eight players nationally to hit three or more homers in a single game this season, underscoring the impact of his performance on Campbell’s 3‑1 week.
A Pitcher's Week to Remember
The pitching honors were shared by Luc Rising of Northeastern and Kurt Rogers of Charleston, each delivering shutout outings that left opponents scrambling. Rising stifled Stony Brook over six innings, allowing just three hits while racking up 15 strikeouts across his last two starts, a streak that includes 12 consecutive scoreless frames. Rogers, meanwhile, limited Elon to two hits and no earned runs in a six‑inning effort, showcasing the depth of talent within the CAA’s mound corps.
Rookie of the Week: Trey Williford's Rise
Freshman right‑hander Trey Williford from UNCW earned Rookie of the Week after a career‑high 11 strikeouts against North Carolina A&T, surrendering only one earned run on four hits in six innings. His performance not only highlighted personal promise but also signaled a bright future for UNCW’s pitching staff as the team looks to build on its early season momentum.
The weekly awards reflect a competitive landscape where offensive firepower and pitching excellence intertwine, setting the stage for an exciting stretch of conference play. As the season progresses, these standout performances will likely influence both team rankings and individual accolades across the CAA.
