Player of the Week

Chartrand was excelling in all phases of the game for Sterling this weekend. In the second game of Friday's doubleheader, Chartrand hit for the cycle. The HR was the first of his Sterling College career. He led the team in runs, hits, triples, and RBIs in the two-game series. To top off his incredible hitting performance, he also pitched two scoreless innings to close out Game 2 on Friday.
