Joseph Sitzman named AMC Player of the Week

Meanwhile, Sitzman and the Scots have been bouncing back from a rough start to the season by posting a 3-1 week and sweeping their AMC series against Harris-Stowe State University (HSSU).

The senior first-baseman had a tremendous week by hitting 8-14 (.571) and scoring four runs with 10 RBIs and one home run.

Sitzman had his career day in the final game against HSSU by going 4-5 with two runs, two doubles and four RBIs.

On the week, he averaged two hits and over two RBIs per game. The native of Lewisville, Texas, slugged 1.071 and recorded a hit in every game.

For the season, Sitzman is posting a .250 batting average, but has seven doubles and 21 RBIs which ranks him third in the AMC. He has also already surpassed the total doubles he had in his junior and senior year combined.

This is Sitzman's first AMC Player of the week award for 2016.
