Batting his way to back-to-back NEC Rookie of the Week awards, Boyd hit safely in all four games of Monmouth’s series with Bryant. The starting centerfielder posted .545 (6-for-11) average and accounted for a team-high six base knocks. Boyd produced in nearly every facet of the game as evidenced by his .636 slugging percentage, two successful sacrifices, 12 defensive putouts, and a key outfield assist. The left-handed hitter went 3-for-4 at the plate and delivered two RBI from the ninth spot in the order during Monmouth’s series-opening 8-1 victory. His double was one of MU’s two extra-base hits in a 5-1 setback in the second game. Boyd scored in the third inning and drove in another run during the fifth inning of the Hawks’ 5-3 triumph over Bryant in game three. His fifth-inning sacrifice bunt set up the Hawks’ lone run of a 2-1 final game setback.
