Jack Zoellner, the UNM baseball team’s first baseman, was awarded Mountain West Player of the Week honors after a solid performance in a three-game series against Binghamton over the weekend.
Zoellner hit a pedestrian .200 in game one, going 1-for-5 at the plate and striking out once, but had banner numbers by the end of the series. He rebounded to hit a whopping .500 over three games, going 6-for-12 and driving in eight runs.
But that’s not all. Half of those hits came by way of the long ball. The slugger blasted three home runs, driving in eight RBI and scoring five runs.
