Eric Phoenix (Windsor Forest, ‘19) got some love this afternoon from the Pat McAfee Show for a hit he made last weekend.
McAfee showed this clip as part of a segment involving big hits, with one player at the end of the season winning a Ram truck.

The Stephen Martin Scholars honors Stephen Martin, who broke the color barrier in the Southeastern Conference when he played his first baseball contest for Tulane in 1965. Prospective candidates for the honor represent the highest level of character and leadership skills while being academically driven and civic-minded – all characteristics that teammates used to describe Stephen Martin.
"We're so thrilled to recognize Janae and Eric as this year's recipients of Stephen Martin Scholars," said Ben Weiner Director of Athletics Chair David Harris. "They are committed to the spirit of leadership and community outreach that was so much a part of Mr. Martin and his contributions. We are thrilled that they are front and center as representatives of the Green Wave."
The annual recognition is part of the institution's long-term initiative to honor the lasting impact that individuals from diverse backgrounds have made at the University.
