LAWRENCEVILLE, Ga. -- Schreiner University designated hitter Devin Hooper and University of Dallas pitcher Tyler Montemayor were named to the D3baseball.com Team of the Week for performances the week of Feb. 17-23.
Hooper, who was also the SCAC Hitter of the Week, helped lead the Mountaineers to a 5-0 week going 13-for-16 (.813) with five doubles, two home runs, and 14 RBIs. The sophomore also had a win on the mound, going five innings with six strikeouts.
Montemayor made two appearances out of the Crusaders bullpen, tossing three shutout innings and picking up a pair of saves to help his team sweep Arlington Baptist this weekend. The junior righthander did not allow a hit or walk in either outing. He threw two shutout frames of a seven-inning victory to start the series, and then locked down a save in the finale with a perfect ninth.
The Team of the Week is D3baseball.com's weekly honor roll, in its eighth season of recognizing the top performers at each of nine positions from the previous week. Players are selected from nominations from their school's sports information directors.
The SCAC had five D3baseball.com national Team of the Week honors last season, and already as three honorees this season as Texas Lutheran's Alex Cornman received recognition last week.
