SIOUX FALLS, S.D. –
Logan Williams has been named the TicketSmarter Summit League Player of the Week for the first time in his career, the league office announced on Monday afternoon.
Williams helped lead NDSU baseball to series sweep at Northern Colorado over the weekend and extend its win streak to six games. He totaled a team-high 11 RBI and team-best four home runs. The Kailua, Hawaii native registered a .429 batting average with 18 total bases, six hits and five runs.
Williams capped off the series at Northern Colorado with two grand slams and a career-high eight RBI in the 15-1 win. His eight RBI were the most in the NDSU Division I era and one shy of the program record of nine.
Williams has connected on a home run in each of his last seven games and has totaled a team-high 10 this season, which leads the Summit League and ranks tied for 10th in the nation. His 10 home runs are also the most in the NDSU Division I era in a single season and tied for 11th overall on the NDSU all-time single season list.
Williams becomes the third different Bison to win the Summit League weekly honor after
Tristen Roehrich and
Evan Sankey were tabbed pitcher of the week earlier this season.
NDSU will be back in action at Western Illinois on Friday. First pitch is set for 3:00 p.m.
