ROCK HILL, S.C. – Emory & Henry College senior centerfielder Tyler Bradley has been tabbed as the South Atlantic Conference Varsity Gems Baseball Player of the Week, league officials announced Tuesday.

Bradley is the first E&H baseball player to receive weekly honors from the SAC office and the first player of the week for the Wasps since Ben Sexton earned the honor from the Old Dominion Athletic Conference on March 5, 2018.

Additionally, the NCBWA announced Tuesday afternoon that Bradley is the Southeast Region Player of the Week.

The Bessemer City, North Carolina native led Emory & Henry to a 3-1 week last week including a pair of victories over No. 14 Wingate University. Bradley batted an even .500, going 8-for-16 with a double and five home runs. He scored seven times and drove in 16 while also stealing a pair of bases. Bradley posted an on-base percentage of .556 and a slugging average of 1.500 as he tallied three multi-hit games and a pair of multi-home run contests.

Wednesday at Concord, he went 3-for-5 with two home runs, six RBI, three runs scored and a stolen base. He followed that up with a stellar Saturday at Wingate, going 4-for-7 across two games with four runs scored, three home runs, 10 RBI and a stolen base.

Emory & Henry is currently 7-11 on the year with a 2-4 mark in SAC play. The Wasps visit Barton College on Tuesday at 2:00 p.m., and continue their Spring Break road trip on Wednesday at Chowan University at 1:00 p.m.
