DALLAS – Missouri State swept Conference USA's weekly baseball awards Monday, with Caden Bogenpohl picking up Hitter of the Week honors and Jason Schaaf being named the league's Pitcher of the Week.
 
Bogenpohl scored 12 times in four games to help the Bears to a 4-0 week, batting .500 with a .929 slugging percentage and .650 OBP, hitting three doubles and a home run to go with six walks. The junior began his remarkable week with a walk-off home run on the first pitch of the 10th inning in Tuesday's victory over No. 17 Arkansas, capping a 3-for-5 game with three runs and two RBIs.
 
Friday, the Jackson, Mo., native doubled twice and scored twice in Mo State's series-opening win against Sam Houston. Saturday, Bogenpohl went 2-for-3 with a double and touched home four times, then walked three times and scored three runs in Sunday's finale against the Bearkats.
 
Schaaf fired a two-hit shutout Sunday against Sam Houston to complete the weekend sweep and help the Bears improve to 15-0 at home. The senior from Las Vegas retired the final 13 Bearkats he faced to complete the first individual two-hit shutout by a Bear since Nick Petree in 2013. He struck out seven and yielded just a single, double and two walks in his second career shutout.
 
The Bears (21-9) begin a four-game road trip Tuesday at 6 p.m. when they visit in-state rival Missouri. The Tigers make the return trip to Hammons Field on April 15 at 6:30 p.m. Tickets to all home games are available here.
