Bowling Green, KY – After a dominant week at the plate, Derick Andiarena has been named the Mid-South Conference Player of the Week, conference officials announced Monday.

Andiarena helped power No. 6 Cumberlands to a 4-1 record on the week, batting .636 (14-for-22) across five games. He tallied five extra-base hits and recorded a multi-hit performance in each contest.

The senior slugger finished the week with two doubles and three home runs while driving in 17 RBIs and scoring 10 runs.
