JONESBORO, Ark. (4/25/16) – Arkansas State infielder/catcher Joe Schrimpf has been named the Sun Belt Conference Community Coffee Student-Athlete of the Week, announced Monday by the league office.
Schrimpf, a native of St. Louis, Mo., helped lead the Red Wolves to a 4-0 week and first sweep in a SBC series since last season after A-State defeated Southern Illinois 7-1 in the midweek and took three in a row from ULM this past weekend.
The junior was fantastic at the plate for the team as he had two hits in each game and collected three extra-base hits, including his fifth home run of the season Saturday, which is second best on the squad.
