The rookie first baseman also slugged .750 on the week with two doubles and one home run while posting a .385 on-base percentage. He helped Shorter to a GSC series win on the road at UAH as he was a combined 3-for 9 at the plate with four RBI and two runs scored. He had a two-run homer in game one of Saturday’s doubleheader before tallying two doubles in the series finale. This is Maddela’s second award, he previously won GSC Freshman of the Week on Feb. 5.
