EPAC POTW ( 4/21-4/27)

Congratulations to Deacon Brown (Lackawanna College – Men's Baseball) and Natalie Berry (Delaware Tech – Women's Softball) as this week's EPAC Players of the Week.

In 3 games last week, Deacon was a combined 8-for-13 (.615 BA) with 7 runs, 12 RBIs, and 4 home runs, helping the Falcons go 3-0. Deacon put up a 2.205 OPS (.667 OBP + 1.538 SLG) in his 3 contests, drawing 2 walks in addition to his prowess at the plate. He was 3-for-5 with two runs, three RBIs, and a solo home run in the 8-0 win against D3 #1 RCSJ Gloucester last Thursday. Against Monroe CC in Sunday's doubleheader, Deacon was a combined 5-for-8 with nine RBIs and three home runs. He was 3-for-4 with two runs and seven RBIs in game one, hitting a towering three-run homer in the bottom of the first inning to cap a nine-run Falcons rally, followed by a two-run shot to the right field corner later in the game to boost the Falcons to a double-digit lead, eventually winning 13-1 in five innings. In game two, Brown was 2-for-4 with three runs and two RBIs, hitting a two-run homer in the fourth inning to right field that made it 14-2, Falcons, in a game they'd go on to win 20-13. Deacon has a .426 batting average and a 1.307 OPS this year, second on the team. His 38 runs are fifth on the Falcons, while his 49 RBIs are first on the team. He has ten homers, tied for the team-high, and his 21 walks are second on the team.
