PITCHER OF THE WEEK - Logan Verrett, Baylor, RHP, So., 6-2, 180, Corpus Christi, Texas/Calallen - Verrett turned in one of the best performances in Baylor Ballpark history with a complete-game four-hitter against Texas A&M on Saturday. He posted 13 strikeouts, a venue record. Each of the last 12 strikeouts were swinging, and he issued just two walks. Verrett surrendered just two hits through the first seven innings, and did not allow a runner to advance past second base until consecutive doubles in the eighth ended his shutout bid. He finished the game as strong as he started, striking out the first two and the last two batters of the game. Verrett’s 13 strikeouts were the most by a Bear hurler in a regular season game since Jason Jennings struck out 14 against Kansas in 1999. The Corpus Christi, Texas-righty retired at least one batter in every inning but the eighth, yet never struck out the side. Verrett pitched a full two innings longer than his previous career best of 7.0 innings, helping to save the BU bullpen for Sunday’s series finale.
4-12 from: http://thecollegebaseballblog.com/2010/04/12/southland-conference-players-of-the-week-7 - Texas State outfielder Laurn Randell has been named the Southland Conference Hitter of the Week. Randell led Texas State’s offensive attack this weekend, batting .733 in four games and helping Texas State to a 3-1 week. The senior from Austin, Texas (McCallum), went 1-for-4 at Baylor, but shined in the Bobcats’ three-game sweep of Central Arkansas. He went 5-for-5 with three RBI and two runs in the opening game of the series and fell a double shy of the cycle because he stretched out his second triple on the day. Randell also notched his first home run of the season in the 14-2 run-rule win to be named Hitter of the Day in Baseball America’s Around the Nation Blog. Randell remained perfect at the plate reaching base each time, going 2-for-2 with a pair of walks and a hit by pitch. He closed out the series with a 3-for-4 effort, including his third homer of the series. Against the Bears, Randell batted .909 with a 2.091 slugging percentage and a .938 on-base percentage, while adding one outfield assist and a pair of stolen bases.
