Frogs’ leadoff hitter earns Big 12 player award after OSU series

TCU right fielder Austen Wade earned the player of the week award in the Big 12 after hitting .455 and throwing out two runners at the plate in a sweep of Oklahoma State, the conference announced Monday.

Wade, a junior from Midland, also doubled twice, drew three walks, stole two bases and drove in two runs out of the leadoff spot during the three-game series. His throws from the outfield were part of two relays to throw out a runner, one in the opening game and another in the second game, cutting down the go-ahead run.
