Deimling becomes third Lobo to win MW Player of the Week

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. – Just four weeks into the 2019 season and the University of New Mexico baseball team has now earned three Mountain West Player of the Week awards as Jeff Deimling was named as the latest recipient by the league office on Monday.
 
Deimling, a redshirt senior designated hitter from Albuquerque, has been on an offensive tear as of late. The hot streak for Deimling started in the series finale against San Jose State and carried over to the recent weekend series against preseason nationally-ranked Cal State Fullerton.
 
In the three-game set, Deimling batted .455 as he went 5-for-11. In the Lobos’ two wins over the Titans, Deimling did most of his damage as he was 4-for-6 with four runs scored, two HRs and eight RBIs. In each of those two games, Deimling was 2-for-3 with a home run and four RBIs.
 
Overall for the weekend, Deimling would total nine RBIs and slugged 1.091.
