FOREST, Va. - Junior Carl Keenan was named ODAC Player of the Week for baseball on Monday afternoon after a 3-0 week for Shenandoah University.

Keenan hit .692 in three non-conference games this week, including a game two performance against Penn State Abington in which the second baseman hit for the cycle.

His week started out with a home run to lead off Wednesday's game versus Mary Baldwin University. The solo shot came on the first pitch faced. In the fifth inning of the game, Keenan singled up the middle to score Jacob Martin for his second RBI of the afternoon.

In game one against Penn State Abington, Keenan had two hits with a walk, plus a pair of runs. The junior scored in the first to make it 1-0, then made it 6-1 in the fourth after crossing the plate.

During game two of the doubleheader, Keenan led off the game with his second home run of the week. The junior capped off the game with a game-ending RBI double in the eighth, completing the cycle.

Overall, in the three games, Keenan had nine hits, six runs, two home runs, and two doubles. The second baseman also went perfect on nine chances in the infield. He currently leads the team with a .526 batting average through five games.

The Hornets are in action later this week at home versus Hood College and three games apart of the 2026 Mr. V Memorial Tournament.
