For the second straight week, Kent State has swept the Mid-American Conference weekly awards. Pete Schuler was named the East Division Player of the Week while Eric Lauer was named the East Division Pitcher of the Week as both helped the Flashes go 4-0, including a series sweep at Ohio.
Schuler had a big week at the plate as the freshman earned the first honors of his young career. He started the week off by going 3-for-4 against Penn State with a double and two runs scored. He caught the first game of the DH with Ohio, a 6-0 shutout.
