Hilbert College Athletics

JR Thomas Evans was electric yet again, hitting home runs in three of the Hawks' four games to help lift Hilbert to a 3-1 record. Evans hit a pair of home runs mid-week at Alfred State.  He then followed that performance up with a pair of home runs against Penn State Altoona in the night cap, including a walk-off, 2-run home run with two outs in the bottom of the 9th. Evans finished the week batting .571 with an off-the-charts 1.643 slugging percentage and 2.310 OPS. The Orchard Park native finished the week with eight hits including three doubles and four home runs. Evans scored nine runs, added seven RBI, drew a pair of walks and stole a base as well. Defensively, he posted a 1.000 fielding percentage, making 16 putouts over 16 total chances. Evans now leads the AMCC in runs scored (45), triples (5), extra base hits (30) and stolen bases (12).
