ST. CLOUD, Minn. – Redshirt senior second baseman and righthanded pitcher Sam Riola has been named Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference Player of the Week on Tuesday following his incredible performance in St. Cloud State's weekend sweep of Mary.
Riola went 7-for-10 (.700) at the plate with five runs scored, a double, two home runs and five RBI while slashing .700/.750/1.400 for a ridiculous 2.150 OPS in the three game set. The All-American opened the series with back-to-back three-hit contests while homering twice in the opener. He started game two on the mound and exited in line for the win before ultimately taking a no-decision, striking out nine over 6.0 innings of four-hit ball.
In the month of April, Riola is hitting .519 (28-for-54) with six doubles, a triple, seven home runs and 18 RBI while going six-for-seven on steals. The SCSU standout is slashing .519/.594/1.056 this month for a whopping 1.650 OPS.
