Clarksville, TN – Austin Peay State University (APSU) baseball redshirt freshman Cole Johnson was named Atlantic Sun Conference Player of the Week for the first time in his career, following a stellar week at the plate last week.
Johnson batted .643 (9-for-14) over four games with a double and a pair of home runs, while recording a multi-hit performance and collecting an RBI in every game.
He began the week going 2-for-3 against No. 23 Ole Miss on the road, including a two-run go-ahead home run in the fourth inning.
Johnson had a 3-for-4 performance in the series finale against Bellarmine on Sunday and finished the game a triple shy of the cycle. He collected four RBI and had two stolen bases in the contest as well.
Over the four games last week, Johnson had 10 RBI, a pair of sacrifice flies, and tallied 16 total bases, helping him earn a 1.143 slugging percentage.
