⚾ Power, Precision Lead SIAC Weekly Honors

The Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference delivered another week of standout performances on the diamond, highlighted by explosive offense and dominant pitching as the SIAC Baseball Players of the Week were announced.

Leading the headlines is Kentucky State’s Ryan Campbell, who turned in one of the most jaw-dropping performances of the season. In a single game, Campbell erupted for four home runs, eight RBIs, and five runs scored, finishing just one homer shy of an NCAA all-time record.

The historic outing came during a high-scoring matchup that also ranked among the top games in NCAA Division II history for combined hits, underscoring just how electric the moment was. Campbell didn’t stop there—he stayed locked in throughout the series, batting .500 (7-for-14) and continuing to anchor Kentucky State’s offense.

On the mound, Edward Waters’ Tyler Pfirrmann delivered a performance just as impressive—only quieter. The junior right-hander controlled the game with precision, tossing seven shutout innings while allowing just five hits and striking out eight in a win over Miles College.

Pfirrmann’s outing wasn’t just dominant—it was consistent with a season that has positioned him as one of the conference’s most reliable arms. With the victory, he improved to 7-1 on the year, continuing to build a résumé that demands attention across the SIAC.

As conference play intensifies, performances like these are setting the tone. Campbell’s power surge and Pfirrmann’s command on the mound reflect the depth of talent across HBCU baseball—and signal that the race for postseason positioning is only heating up.
