Indiana baseball players continue to clean up on weekly awards handed out by the Big Ten. In recognition of the Hoosiers' sweep of the University of Michigan to place themselves in a tie for second in the conference, junior center fielder Justin Cureton and freshman catcher Kyle Schwarber won Player of the Week and Freshman of the Week, respectively.
Cureton batted .583 against Wolverines' pitching, raising his batting average by .22 points to .251. He got on base at a .593 clip. Once he got on, he was four-for-four on stolen base attempts.
He converted all 12 of his putout attempts as he posted an immaculate fielding percentage.
The Hoosiers' freshman catcher continued to mash. You can read about the Hoosiers' precocious backstop's accomplishment by clicking here.
A little perspective: Freshman first baseman Sam Travis, the team-leader with four individual honors, has more weekly awards than eight Big Ten teams. The Hoosiers 10 winners are more than five Big Ten teams combined.
