UPCOMING WEEK: UAH (14-8, 8-4 GSC) has a total of five games on this week's slate beginning on Wednesday with a doubleheader at Spring Hill (7-13, 3-0 SIAC) at 1 p.m., before heading to West Florida (16-9, 8-3 GSC) for a three-game Gulf South Conference series on Saturday and Sunday.
 
RECENT ACTION: The Chargers have won each of their past five games to boast a record of 14-8 and 8-4 in the GSC, after a three-game sweep of Christian Brothers at Charger Park over the weekend. Entering the week, UAH is tied for fourth in the GSC standings after three weekends in conference play.
 
YOUTH PRODUCING: Tyler McCown notched his second GSC Freshman of the Week award of the season, following a week in which the newcomer boasted a .417 batting average with one homer, three RBI and three walks. This season, McCown leads all UAH freshmen with 30 or more at-bats with a .283 batting average, 18 runs scored, four doubles, two homers and 10 RBI.
 
THE STREAK CONTINUES: Ben Rhodes chipped in a total of five hits this weekend including two games with two base hits, which gives the senior a 15-game hit streak dating back to Feb. 23 at Auburn Montgomery. During the streak, Rhodes has registered a .519 batting average with 14 runs, five doubles, two triples, two homers, eight RBI and seven walks which has raised his season average to third in the GSC at .421.
 
LEADING CLOSER: Dylan Murphy continues to be one of the strongest relievers in the conference in his freshman season, as the right-hander picked up his league-leading sixth save of the season over the weekend. This season, Murphy boasts a 1.29 ERA over 14.0 innings out of the bullpen with 20 strikeouts compared to just four walks.
 
BADGERS PROFILE: Spring Hill enters Wednesday's matchup with a 7-13 overall record and a 3-0 record within the SIAC, after most recently sweeping Clark Atlanta over the weekend. The Badgers offense is led by Brennan Fontenot and Grayson Williams with four homers and 14 RBI each, while the SHC pitching staff has a team ERA of 7.66.
 
SERIES HISTORY: UAH is 3-2 all-time against Spring Hill.
 
ARGOS PROFILE: West Florida begins the week with a 16-9 overall record and an 8-3 mark in GSC play, following a doubleheader split with Mississippi College on Saturday. The Argos boast a total of five regulars with batting averages of .340 or higher led by Brandon Harmon with a .382 average, while UWF's pitching staff has a 3.43 team ERA.
