SIOUX FALLS — South Dakota State's Drew Beazley was honored Monday as Summit League Player of the Week for his efforts in leading the Jackrabbit baseball team to a series win at Oral Roberts over the weekend.
A freshman from Johnston, Iowa, Beazley contributed all over the diamond as SDSU won the final two games of the three-game series in Tulsa, Oklahoma. He hit the game-winning solo home run in the top of the ninth inning in a 2-1 victory March 23, then doubled twice and pitched the final 2 1/3 innings to earn the victory in a 9-8 win the next day.
In the three-game series, Beazley hit .400 (4-for-10) and compiled a .900 slugging percentage with two doubles and a home run. He also drove in three runs and scored twice. In his March 24 pitching appearance, Beazley allowed a run on one hit and struck out a pair of batters in the bottom of the ninth to secure his first collegiate win.
Beazley is the third Jackrabbit this season to be honored as Summit League Player of the Week, joining Logan Holtz (March 4) and Gus Steiger (March 11). In addition, Brady Stover was named Summit League Pitcher of the Week on Feb. 18.
The Jackrabbits, 11-10 overall and tied for second in the Summit League standings with a 4-2 mark, resume league action with a three-game series Friday through Sunday at Purdue Fort Wayne.
