INDIANAPOLIS — Drury baseball standouts Connor Bain and Coleman Morrison earned a clean sweep of the Athletic Solutions Great Lakes Valley Conference Player and Pitcher of the Week honors after leading the Panthers to a series sweep of UAH over the weekend.

Bain kicked off his senior campaign with a dominant effort at the plate to lead Drury to its first 3-0 start to a season since 2022. The Troy, Ill., native went a combined 7-for-9 at the plate in DU's season-opening doubleheader sweep of UAH on Friday, including a 4-for-5 effort in a 10-7 win in which he homered, drove in three runs and scored three more. Bain added a 3-for-4 performance with a steal and another run scored in an 8-5 DU win in the nightcap, before driving in a run in Saturday's series finale, a 14-7 Panthers victory.

In all, Bain batted .571 (8-for-14) and slugged a team-leading .786 with a home run, four RBIs, four runs scored and a steal in Drury's three contests in Huntsville.

Morrison logged an impressive outing in his Drury debut, picking up the mound victory in the Panthers' season-opening win in Friday's first game. A junior right-hander, he worked 5.0 hitless and scoreless frames, striking out six hitters and walking just two in a 79-pitch outing. Morrison fanned two hitters to escape the home half of the first inning, then retired nine-straight Charger hitters and allowed just two more UAH batters to reach base.
