LANCASTER, Pa. – Junior outfielder
Pete Kokinis (Owings Mills, Md./McDonogh School) has been named the Centennial Conference Player of the Week in baseball for the week of March 16-22. This is the first time he has earned the conference's weekly award.
Kokinis became just the eighth player in Centennial Conference history to hit for the cycle and hit .615 (8-for-13) with two home runs, 10 RBIs, seven runs scored, four doubles, one triple, three stolen bases, a .688 on-base percentage, 1.538 slugging percentage and an OPS of 2.226 in a 3-1 week for the Shoremen. In Thursday's 15-12 win over visiting Cairn, the junior hit for the cycle going 5-for-5 with five RBIs, three runs, two doubles, a triple and a home run in the win. Kokinis completed the cycle in his fourth trip to the plate on an RBI triple in the bottom of the sixth inning. On Saturday in a 14-4 game one win versus Lancaster Bible, the junior went 2-for-3 with a pair of doubles, three RBIs and a stolen base. In game two's 9-6 win later in the day, he went 1-for-2 with two walks, three runs scored, a home run, two RBIs and a pair of stolen bases. His homer in the second game, a two-run shot, was in the last of the eighth inning to give Washington a 9-5 lead.
The junior is the first Shoreman to win the conference's player of the week on the diamond since
