KENT, OHIO- Kent State redshirt freshman Justin Miknis has been named the Mid-American Conference Player of the Week for his efforts in the three-game series against Seton Hall.
Miknis had two hits in each of the three games against the Pirates, helping the Golden Flashes take two of the three games in the series. In Friday's series opener, Miknis hit a bases-clearing, three-run triple to break open a 6-6 game that Kent State went on to win 10-7. On Saturday, Miknis found himself up with the bases loaded again and again he delivered. The redshirt freshman belted a home run over the scoreboard in right field, helping the Flashes to a 12-4 victory.
