Gugliotta, a junior third baseman from Twinsburg, Ohio, helped the Yellow Jackets to a 4-1 record, including a win at D-I Dayton. On the week, he batted .667 (12-of-18) with eight runs and 11 runs batted in. He had a double and a triple for a .833 slugging percentage, and stole three bases. He also drew five walks for a .739 on base percentage. He began the week going 6-for-7 with three runs and five RBI in split with John Carroll, then was 2-for-5 with two RBI in an 8-6 win at Dayton. He finished with a 4-for-6 day with four runs and four RBI in a twinbill sweep at Mount Union. Gugliotta was the Ohio Athletic Conference Player of the Week.

Paccione, a junior infielder from Commack, N.Y., batted .778 (7-for-9), including three multi-hit games, with seven runs scored and seven runs batted in, in a 4-0 week for the Rams. He slugged two home runs, two triples, and a double for a 2.000 slugging percentage, and drew a walk for a .800 on base percentage.
