Piedmont Sweeps GSAC Weekly Baseball Honor Roll

The Piedmont College baseball team made a complete sweep of this week's Great South Athletic Conference weekly honor roll as announced by the conference office this afternoon. Evan Nissley was voted the league's Player of the Week while teammate Andy Graf earned Pitcher of the Week honors.

Nissley, a sophmore outfielder, went 7-for-15 and two RBIs for the week. He went 2-for-4 with an RBI in the Lions' 13-4 win over LaGrange. The win clinched the first GSAC regular-season title for the Lions. Nissley is batting .317 for the season.

Graf, a freshman, won his second Pitcher of the Week award this season. He pitched seven scoreless innings, scattered seven hits, walked three and struck out two in the title clinching win over LaGrange. Graf is 6-1 this season with a 2.90 ERA.
