Quinnipiac baseball first baseman Vincent Guglietti (East Haven, Conn.) has earned this week’s athlete of the week honors with his productive weekend versus Wagner, and his multi-hit game against the University of Massachusetts.
The 6-foot-5-inch sophomore went one for four with a walk and a strikeout in game two the doubleheader against Wagner on Saturday April 27. Then Guglietti had a big day in Sunday’s tilt, going four for five with two doubles, three runs batted in, and one run scored.
He had another big day on Wednesday May 1, going three for four with a double, two runs scored, a walk, and three runs batted in. The productive game included a two-run homerun, which Guglietti crushed over the scoreboard in right field. The Bobcats eventually lost, but the homer tied the game at three in the bottom of the fifth inning.
He is batting a robust .667 over his last five games, and has knocked in six of the last 17 Quinnipiac runs. He and the Bobcats hit the field again this at LIU-Brooklyn this upcoming Friday, May 3.
