Sun Belt announces Community Coffee Baseball Player and Pitcher of the Week (March 7)
Community Coffee Player of the Week
Jonathan Ortega (Texas State, Sophomore, SS/2B)
Jonathan Ortega had at least two hits in every game last week and posted a .611 (11-for-18) average to help lead Texas State to a three-game sweep of Richmond. He hit clutch home runs in the first two games of the series with the Spiders, which marked the first time in his career he hit homers in back-to-back contests. In the second game with TXST trailing 4-2 in the eighth, he hit a two-out, full-count home run to give the Bobcats the lead in a game they would later win in extra innings.
