LUBBOCK, Texas – Leading Coppin State's baseball team to a series victory over Maryland Eastern Shore last weekend, Jordan Hamberg has been named the College Baseball Foundation John Olerud Two-Way Player of the Week, it was announced by the organization on Tuesday morning.

This is the second time this season that Hamberg has received the award, winning the honor previously on April 5.
 
A sophomore from South Plainfield, N.J., Hamberg hit .529 (9-for-17) with two home runs, five RBIs and seven walks in five games last week while adding a double, three runs scored and a pair of stolen bases. Hamberg also struck out 12 batters over six innings in Coppin's 4-2 win over the Hawks on Sunday while putting Coppin ahead 2-0 with a solo home run and an RBI single.
 
Hamberg was one of 13 players named to the John Olerud Two-Way Player of the Year Award Watch List last month.
 
The award, first given in 2010, is named for former Washington State standout John Olerud, who achieved success both as a first baseman and left-handed pitcher during the late 1980s. Olerud went on to play 17 seasons in the Major Leagues, where he was a two-time All-Star and World Series Champion, three-time Gold Glove Award winner and the 1993 AL batting champion. He was inducted into the National College Baseball Hall of Fame in 2007.

The award will be presented by the College Baseball Foundation later this summer.
