MEMPHIS, Tenn. – On the heels of garnering American Athletic Conference Player of the Week earlier in the day, Memphis baseball's Hunter Goodman was named the D1Baseball/AstroTurf National Player of the Week, the organization announced Monday.
Goodman becomes the fifth Tiger all-time to garner National Player of the Week honors from a college baseball publication and first position player since Tucker Tubbs earned Louisville Slugger National Player of the Week honors in 2015.
Throughout the Tigers' 4-0 week, Goodman posted 24 RBI. In the Tigers' three-game series against Western Illinois, Goodman produced 22 RBI behind four home runs - three of which were grand slams on each day - two doubles, seven runs scored and also stole a base.
