Drobushevich was locked in, hitting .688 in the Huskies’ 1-3 week. NIU fell to the University of Illinois Chicago April 9 before dropping two of three the Western Michigan over the weekend.

The young Huskie is currently riding an eight-game hitting streak and a four-game multi-hit game streak.

Drobushevich currently has the second-best batting average at .311 on the team behind first-year catcher/infielder Wyatt O’Brien.

While also hitting for a high average, slugging hasn’t been a problem for Drobushevich.
