Athletes of the Week

Jeremy Davis, Baseball

The senior righty threw a one-hitter in the second game of a doubleheader against NESCAC West opponent Wesleyan University in a 5-1 win on Saturday. The Jumbos swept the doubleheader to bring their record to 10-5 overall.

Because the teams were playing two games in one day, each game was only seven innings, and Davis did not need any relief. He finished the game with one strikeout and no walks, and Wesleyan scored one unearned run. The win improved Davis' record to 2-0, and the unearned run was the only run scored in Davis' seven appearances thus far in the season, making his current ERA zero.

Davis has also been reliable out of the bullpen. Out of his seven appearances this season, only two were starts, and he's often utilized for middle relief. The Little Falls, NY native has allowed nine hits in 17.2 innings pitched.

Last year Davis finished with a 4.54 ERA and a 3-2 record in 35.2 innings pitched, striking out 25 and walking nine.

Dena Miller, Lacrosse

The junior notched four goals and two assists on Saturday to propel the Jumbos to a 13-11 win over the Trinity College Bantams, ranked No. 8 in the nation. The NESCAC win improved the Jumbos' record to 6-2 overall and 2-1 in the league.

The Denver, Colorado standout, who plays attack, leads the Jumbos offensively with 19 goals, 11 assists and 30 points for this season so far. Miller has already surpassed her point total from last season, when she had 29 points on 22 goals. Miller netted a goal early in the game to help the Jumbos gain the lead. The Jumbos went into the second half of the game leading 8-5, and Miller scored three more times to help give the Jumbos the win. The win was key for the Jumbos, who were looking to rebound from a tough 7-6 loss to Bowdoin.

Miller was assisted by strong performances from her teammates, especially sophomore Lauren Murphy, who also posted four goals and two assists in the win over Trinity.
