Peru State College Athletics

So, the announcement for the April Athletes of the Month for Peru State is on time!!
 
Bobcat athletic director Steve Schneider recently announced that Peru State golfer Jessica Weickert (Beatrice) and baseball player Alberto Rosario (Carolina, Puerto Rico) were selected as the April Athletes of the Month. They were picked based on their athletic efforts during the past month.
 
Both Weickert and Rosario earned Heart of America Athletic Conference (Heart) Player honors. 
Rosario earned his honor for his efforts the week of April 24 as he was named the conference’s Pitcher of the Week for the second time this spring.
 
He pitched a three-hit shutout over Culver-Stockton while picking up his sixth win of the season against one loss. Rosario faced just 24 batters and did not issue a walk while striking out nine.
 
Presently, Rosario leads the team with a 2.66 earned run average, which now tops the Heart, and is averaging 10.33 strikeouts per contest with 70 total so far this season. Rosario is currently 14^th in the NAIA in total runs allowed (20), 30^th in opponent batting average (0.212), 34^th in total hits allowed (47), 37^th in hits allowed per nine (6.93), 39^th in total earned runs allowed (18), and 46^th in earned run average (2.660).
 
Schneider commented, “As Jessica and Alberto each were recognized by the conference, they were easy selections. Congratulations to both of them on their picks as April athletes of the month.”
