A pair of fifth year seniors in this one, @dsears_1 has been a key player in the lineup patrolling the outfield for @WIUBaseball while @Will_I_Am2425 picked up right where he left off from a season ago with a record breaking year for @WIU_MensHoops
The finale nominee of the week is @RaymondBrian01 of @WIUBaseball. The fifth year senior had yet another outstanding performance this weekend, going 5 innings, allowing just 1 run on 3 hits, while tying a season high of 6 strikeouts. PC: @wiuvpc Rachel Keating
