Rivera was phenomenal during an unbeaten week for Cuyahoga. She wrecked the competition for 11 hits in 15 at-bats (.733), including four doubles to slug 1.000 in five games played. Rivera was directly responsible for 16 runs in total, scoring nine and driving in seven more. She added four stolen bases and three walks to her already sensational stat line.

BROCK BEGUE
Cuyahoga Community College | Baseball Pitcher of the Week
Begue is a first time winner for 2019, but third in his career. He blanked conference foe Clark State for five innings and struck out 14 batters before the 10-0 run-rule was complete. Begue surrendered a lone hit while issuing no walks in the sizzling performance.
