The Coast-To-Coast Athletic Conference (C2C) has announced its weekly awards following the opening weekend of the 2024 baseball season. Mary Washington's Bobby Ayscue earned C2C Player of the Week honors, while the Eagles Gavin Riley claimed C2C Pitcher of the Week recognition.

PLAYER OF THE WEEK: Bobby Ayscue, Mary Washington

In two games this past weekend, Mary Washington's Bobby Ayscue recorded four hits in nine at-bats (.444), adding two extra-base hits, a walk and four RBIs. In the first leg of the Eagles' doubleheader against Mt. St. Mary's (N.Y.), the senior recorded an RBI single in the second inning of an 18-7 rout of the Knights. In the bottom of the seventh, Ayscue doubled home three runs to complete a mercy-rule walk-off -- finishing the game 2-for-5 with three RBIs and a hit-by-pitch. In the Eagles' second leg on Saturday, Ayscue singled in the first inning and then tripled a run home in the bottom of the sixth to push UMW's lead to 5-0.

PITCHER OF THE WEEK: Gavin Riley, Mary Washington

Getting the nod on Opening Day for Mary Washington on the bump, left-hander Gavin Riley was nothing short of impressive in his Eagles debut. The transfer from Richard Bland threw five innings for the Eagles, yielding just four hits and a run -- while striking out five hitters in the 18-7 victory.
