Alabama's Will Hodo recognized as SEC Baseball Co-Player of the Week
The Alabama Crimson Tide were represented Monday in the latest edition of the SEC's weekly baseball awards, as Will Hodo was officially named as the conference's Co-Player of the Week alongside Arkansas' Wehiwa Aloy. Taking a look at Hodo's week, it originally began Tuesday in a win over Middle Tennessee in which he hit his first home run of the season in a three-for-five performance where he also had a double, two RBI, and three runs scored. Hodo then followed that up with a one-for-four showing the next day in a win over Alabama State in which he had a RBI. Hodo's impact however was felt most this past weekend at the 2025 Jax College Baseball Classic in which Alabama went undefeated against Coastal Carolina, NC State, and Ohio State. In Jacksonville, Hodo went a combined 3-for-9 with a home run, a double, three RBI, and six runs scored, and delivered a walk-off three-run home run to defeat the Buckeyes on Sunday.
