Moran Wins Rawlings Baseball Player of the Week

Hood once again wins freshman of the week

SAN BRUNO, Calif. – Two dominant pitching performances last week led to Pacific's Zach Todd and Pepperdine's Tommy Scavone sharing Rawlings West Coast Conference Pitcher of the Week honors this week. San Diego's CJ Moran won Rawlings West Coast Conference Player of the Week after batting .615 last weekend and Landon Hood won Rawlings West Coast Conference Freshman of the Week for the third straight week. 

RAWLINGS WEST COAST CONFERENCE BASEBALL PLAYER OF THE WEEK – CJ MORAN, SO., INF/OF – SAN DIEGO
CJ Moran batted .615 (8-for-13) at Portland last weekend, tallying two doubles, four RBI, four runs and a stolen base. Moran produced multiple hits in all three of the Toreros' games against the Pilots, including three in both Thursday and Friday's contests. He also got on base at a .600 clip and slugged .769. The Toreros now own two conference player of the week awards this season.
