For the second time this season, Northwest Missouri State junior first baseman Connor Quick has been named the MIAA Hitter of the Week.

Quick (Fenton, Missouri/North Central College) batted .385 with two home runs and seven RBI as Northwest recorded a three-game sweep on the road against Emporia State.

Quick launched a three-run homer in the sixth to lift Northwest to a 4-3 win in Friday’s opening game. He went 2-for-5 with a run scored and an RBI in a 7-3 victory over the Hornets on Saturday. Quick went 2-for-4 with a home run and three RBI in a 12-6 triumph on Sunday.

Quick has reached base in 32 consecutive games entering the MIAA Tournament.

Northwest will take on Missouri Southern Tuesday at 12:30 p.m. in the opening round of the 2019 MIAA Tournament at Al Ortolani Field in Pittsburg, Kansas.
