ATLANTA, Ga. -- On Monday, the Southern Athletic Association (SAA) announced that junior Jimmy Fondren has been named the SAA Baseball Player of the Week.

Fondren started off the 2019 season with a bang over the weekend. On Saturday afternoon, he crushed a solo home run in the bottom of the 2nd against LeTourneau, which led to a Millsaps win. The next day, Fondren homered again against Maryville.

Over the two games, he hit .444 going 4-for-9 with two HRs, four RBI, three runs scored, and a 1.111 slugging percentage.

The Majors are off to a 1-1 start in 2019. They will be back in action tomorrow night when they host Centenary College. First pitch from Twenty Field is set for 4:00pm.
