FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – Kuhio Aloy has been named SEC Player of the Week after powering Arkansas to a midweek win against Northwestern State on April 28 before an SEC series win against Ole Miss on May 1-3 at Baum-Walker Stadium.
The Razorback designated hitter slashed a team-leading .600/.625/1.267 with nine hits, including three home runs, and seven RBI on the week. Aloy swatted home runs in all three games against the Rebels, highlighted by his 469-foot solo shot in Sunday’s series-clinching win. He finished the weekend with a team-leading seven hits, including a double and his three homers, as well as with a team-high six RBI to power Arkansas to its sixth consecutive series win against Ole Miss.
Aloy is the third Razorback player to earn a weekly honor from the conference this season. Colin Fisher was named SEC Pitcher of the Week on Feb. 23 after firing an eight-inning complete-game one-hit shutout with a career-high 11 strikeouts and no walks against Xavier on Feb. 22 to lead Arkansas to a home opening weekend series sweep.
TJ Pompey was named SEC Player of the Week on April 13 after powering Arkansas to a series sweep of Alabama on April 10-12 in Tuscaloosa, Ala., racking up a pair of multi-hit games while driving in a team-high six RBI on the weekend.
