LSC BASEBALL PLAYERS OF THE WEEK
LSC Hitter of the Week
Heath Herron, Tarleton State University
Sr., left field, Celina, Texas/Celina
Herron tied a school record - twice in one night - collecting five hits in both games of a doubleheader against West Texas A&M on Friday night.  Herron went 5-for-7 in the first game with two doubles.  He accounted for seven of Tarleton's 27-run outburst against the Buffs, knocking in two and scoring five times.  Herron did not stop there as he batted 1.000 in game two, going 5-for-5.  He accounted for 10 of Tarleton's 18 runs in game two as he drove in five runs and crossed the plate five more times.  Herron's performance helped the Texans cruise to their first four-game sweep since February of last season.

LSC Pitcher of the Week
Kyle Head, University of Central Oklahoma
Jr., Pitcher, Pryor, Okla./Pryor HS
Head was brilliant on the mound, pitching a complete game, one-hit shutout to lead Central Oklahoma to a 2-0 victory over nationally-ranked Angelo State.  The Pryor, Okla., native surrendered his lone base hit, a single in the first before holding the Rams hitless over the next 6 2/3 innings while compiling season-high five strikeout and not allowing an Angelo State baserunner to advance past second base.
