IRVING, Texas – For the second-straight week, Texas Tech will take home the Big 12 Baseball Player of the Week and Newcomer of the Week honors, the conference announced on Monday.
Parker Kelly was selected the Player of the Week while Owen Washburn was named the Newcomer of the Week for games played Feb. 28-March 6. Ty Coleman was recognized with both honors a week ago.
In five games, Kelly hit .421 with 13 RBI and three home runs and one double. The week included a massive Saturday contest that featured the senior mash all three home runs in one game, including two for Grand Slams, that added up to nine RBI – tying a Texas Tech program record for a single game.
Washburn, a true freshman, recorded his first two career home runs collecting the two in back-to-back games. He owned a .421 batting average over five games, and also collected a double in addition to the two home runs, and racked up eight RBI.
Texas Tech scored 70 runs in total to sweep Merrimack over the weekend in four games after posting a big 4-3 extra innings midweek win over Dallas Baptist.
Baylor's Tyler Thomas was selected the Big 12 Pitcher of the Week.
