GREENSBORO, N.C. (theACC.com) – Notre Dame’s Niko Kavadas has been voted the ACC Baseball Player of the Week, while Louisville’s Adam Wolf was selected Pitcher of the Week.
                                                                     
ACC weekly honors are determined by a vote of a select media panel. This is the first career weekly award for both players.
                                                                  
Kavadas was 8-for-12 last week with five runs driven in, seven runs scored, two home runs, and four walks to lead Notre Dame to a 3-1 week. In a 14-4 midweek win over Western Michigan, the freshman third baseman from Granger, Indiana, was 3-for-3 with two runs, two RBI, a home run, and a walk. Kavadas tallied five hits in the series win over Pitt, including a go-ahead home run in the sixth inning of Friday’s win over the Panthers to give the Irish the lead for good. In the four games, Kavadas posted an on-base percentage of .765 and a slugging percentage of 1.167.
                                                                                                                                      
Wolf registered 10 strikeouts and allowed only one run on three hits in a career-high 8.0 innings of work to move to 5-2 on the season in last Friday’s series-opening victory at Boston College. The 10 strikeouts were just one shy of his career best total of 11 achieved earlier this season at Wake Forest (March 16), five of his eight innings against the Eagles were 1-2-3 innings, and the only run he surrendered came with two outs in the eighth. The junior lefthander from Milan, Ohio, lowered his ERA to 2.26 and has surrendered two or fewer earned runs in nine of his 12 starts this season for the Cardinals.
