BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – University of West Alabama third basemen Rob Dahlberg was named Gulf South Conference East Division Player of the Week for his efforts this past week, as announced by the conference office on Tuesday afternoon.

Dahlberg earns his fourth career honor after leading West Alabama to three wins this past week including an extra-inning victory over then-No. 10 Delta State Wednesday and a GSC East Division series win over visiting Montevallo this past weekend.

The Gilbertown, Ala.-product, Dahlberg, accounted for four runs in the Tigers' victory over the Statesmen, going 2-for-4 with a home run. Against the Falcons, the junior was 5-for-12 with four runs scored and eight RBI, including a grand slam in the 14-13 series finale.

Dahlberg becomes the fourth Tiger to receive the weekly laurel from the conference and the second GSC East Division Player of the Week for the Red and White. Teammates Tres Avans, Brandon Dill and Mike Schmitt have received recognition from the conference with Dill being the only two-time recipient this season.

The #3 West Alabama baseball team returns to action on Wednesday, March 26, as the Tigers close out a three-game, mid-week series against Henderson State at Tartt Field. First pitch is scheduled for 1:00 p.m. The game will be carried on Y-104.9-FM and athletics.uwa.edu.
