BIRMINGHAM | The Gulf South Conference announced their baseball weekly awards for the final week of the regular season on Tuesday and UAH senior Carson Villalta was named the GSC Player of the Week.

He is the first Charger baseball player to earn player of the week honors since he was named GSC Player of the Week and NCBWA South Region Player of the Week last season. 

During Villalta's final week of his UAH career, the senior amassed a .538 batting average as he knocked a pair of home runs and contributed 13 RBI over the course of four games. He reached base a total of 11 times during the week. 

In Saturday's doubleheader against Union, the Florence, Alabama, native went 5-for-6 and tallied seven RBI to secure the sweep for the Chargers. He had two doubles, a triple, and a home run against the Bulldogs while playing out of position at third base and posting a perfect fielding percentage. 

The UAH baseball team concluded their season with the series against Union and ended the year with a six game winning streak.
