HIGH POINT, N.C. – Barton College's Andrew Webster was named the Conference Carolinas Baseball Player of the Week, while teammate Dylan Ward earned the Conference Carolinas Baseball Pitcher of the Week for games played Mar. 13-19, the Conference announced today.
Webster, a senior from Pittsboro, N.C., led the Bulldogs to a 4-1 record after having a spectacular week at the plate. He collected 13 hits, including eight extra-base hits (5 2b, 3 hr), for a .765 average and seven RBI. His best outing came in Barton's lone loss, as he went 5-for-5 with two homers, two doubles and three RBI.
A sophomore from Laurinburg, N.C., Ward picked up a pair of wins last week for the Bulldogs, tossing 10 innings of work with a 0.00 ERA. He would notch 10 strikeouts and scatter six hits with one unearned run allowed. His best performance was a complete game win over King, which saw him give up six hits with one unearned run but punch out eight batters.
