RUSSELLVILLE, Ark. – For the second time this season, an East Central University baseball player has claimed a Great American Conference honor, as junior Khaji Butler was named GAC Player of the Week for Feb. 24.

The Choctaw, Okla., native helped the Tigers (7-8, 4-2 GAC) record their first road GAC series sweep since 2015 and the first overall since 2016, with a sweep at Southern Nazarene.  ECU also played two mid-week games, falling at Southeastern and then rallying to defeat Rogers State.

Butler went 2-of-6 with two homeruns against the Crimson Storm, with 6 RBIs in Saturday's first game.  He also put the Tigers ahead for good in the finale, with a two-run home run in the sixth. Wednesday, he went 2-of-3, with two runs in the win against Rogers State.
