BRIDGEWATER, N.J. - FDU freshman starting pitcher Drew Cisney was honored with the distinction of being the NEC's Rookie of the Week in the conference's weekly release. The award comes after Cisney went seven full innings without allowing a run, and picking up the win against Delaware State in the second game of a doubleheader in Dover. 

Cisney picked up his second win of the season in that start, while only allowing two hits, going across seven full innings of shutout ball. This is the first honor of Cisney's career, and this distinction comes off of his start against New Haven where he struck out ten batters across six innings, while also picking up the win in that effort. 

FDU's Hunter Ray and Travis Stroh were named Prime Performer's in the weekly release, as the honor comes for Stroh after a week where he went 8-for-20 at the plate, with two homers, seven RBI, eight runs scored, and four stolen bases. Hunter Ray gets another Prime Performer after he went 6-for-20 at the plate for FDU, with two more home runs, eight RBI's and five runs scored. Both Ray and Stroh kept their 1.000 fielding percentage over the last week of play as well. 

The Knights will next be in action on Thursday, as FDU will take on UMES in a NEC series at Naimoli Family Baseball Complex. First pitch is set for Thursday at 3 p.m. and the game will be streamed on NEC Front Row.
