05/01/23 | Baseball
EUGENE, Ore. – After leading Oregon to a 4-1 week and a series win over No. 12 Arizona State last week with a 1.595 OPS, Drew Cowley has been named one of Collegiate Baseball's Players of the Week.
Cowley (Upland, Calif. / Upland HS) batted .421 with four home runs and 10 RBI in the five games against Gonzaga and Arizona State. He finished the week with three multiple-hit games while reaching base multiple times in all five contests, finishing with a .542 on-base percentage and a 1.053 slugging percentage.
The Ducks' shortstop opened the week going 3-for-5 with a home run, three RBI and two runs scored in an 11-4 Oregon win. He wrapped up the two-game Gonzaga series reaching base three times (1-for-3, 2 BB) in the finale. Against Arizona State, Cowley drove in seven runs while homering three times. He homered twice, including a grand slam, in an 11-5 game-one win while matching a career high with five RBI. In game two, he homered again while reaching base three times (2-for-4, HBP) with a pair of runs batted in and a run scored. In the series finale, he walked and was hit by a pitch.
Cowley is the fourth Oregon position player to earn a weekly honor from Collegiate Baseball. He joins third baseman Sabin Ceballos, left fielder Tanner Smith and catcher Josiah Cromwick.
