Carson Tinney has had a heck of a week, and now the Notre Dame Fighting Irish catcher has an award to show for it.
Tinney took home the Dick Howser Trophy National Co-Hitter of the Week trophy after batting 9-for-12 with nine hits, two doubles, four home runs, seven RBI and 10 runs scored as the Fighting Irish swept the Stanford Cardinal on the road.
He had an .800 on-base percentage, 1.917 slugging percentage and caught all four baserunners who attempted to steal against him. In the final game of the series, Tinney was 5-for-5 with a double, a home run, an RBI and four runs scored. Those were career highs for hits and runs scored during a single game.
During the week overall, Tinney was 10-for-15 with 10 hits, 11 runs, two doubles, five homers, five walks and nine RBI. He had a 1.800 slugging percentage and a .750 on-base percentage as Notre Dame went 4-0.
This is the first NCBWA Hitter of the Week honor for Tinney, and he also was ACC Player of the Week.
That's quite a seven days.
