SELINSGROVE, Pa . – Susquehanna University sophomore shortstop Brian Ahearn has been honored as the Commonwealth Conference Player of the Week in baseball after leading the Crusaders to a three-game sweep of their weekend series with Moravian.

Ahearn (Avon, NJ/Red Bank Catholic) went 5-for-9 with seven runs batted in as the Crusaders pulled off their first sweep since conference three-game series began in 2002, winning at home 8-4 on Friday before winning a doubleheader at Moravian on Saturday by scores of 5-3 and 6-5 in eight innings.

Ahearn was 2-for-4 with two doubles, two runs scored and the game-winning RBI in Friday's win, finished 1-for-2 with two RBI in Saturday's opener, then hit a bases-loaded double and finished 2-for-3 with four RBI in the nightcap to finish off the sweep.

Defensively, Ahearn did not make an error in eight chances at shortstop and gunned out a runner at the plate on a perfect relay throw from the outfield in Friday's game.

For the season, Ahearn is batting .571 (8-for-14) with three doubles and eight runs batted in for the Crusaders (5-9 overall, 3-3 Commonwealth).
