HART, MYERS SWEEP WEEKLY AWARDS
Posted: Apr 11, 2023

Centerville, IA – Teammates Sam Hart (Highlands Ranch, CO/ThunderRidge) and Logan Myers (Andover, MN/Andover) of the Indian Hills Baseball team swept the weekly Iowa Community College Athletic Conference (ICCAC) DI Baseball Athlete of the Week honors. The duo helped lead the Warriors to a 4-1 record last week.

Hart was tapped as this week's ICCAC DI Pitcher of the Week while Myers landed ICCAC DI Player of the Week honors at the plate. The Warriors defeated Kirkwood Community College 9-6 on Wednesday before taking three of four on the road at Des Moines Area Community College over the weekend.

Hart, the University of Iowa signee, led the Warriors on the mound with three saves in three opportunities last week. The hard-throwing righty did not allow a run in 2.2 innings of work and struck out five batters. The Warriors' reliable closer has now tallied eight saves on the year, the third-most in the nation.

In 11 appearances this year, Hart has not allowed a run and sports a 2.02 earned run average. The sophomore hurler currently sports a 14.85 K/9 rate on the year.

Offensively, Myers proved to be the catalyst for the Warriors. The freshman catcher posted a .438 batting average to extend his season-long hitting streak to six games. Myers has also produced at least one RBI in six consecutive games as well. Myers' biggest hit of the week came in a tight game contest vs. DMACC on Sunday. Trailing 8-7, Myers delivered a two-run home run to left field for the go-ahead run.

On the year, Myers is batting .345 with a pair of home runs and 17 RBI. During his six-game hitting streak, Myers is hitting .440 at the dish.

The Warriors return to ICCAC action Wednesday afternoon at Pat Daugherty Field with a doubleheader vs. Marshalltown Community College.
