Pitcher Chrobak Named Behrend Lions Athlete of the Week

Penn State Behrends junior baseball pitcher Andrew Chrobak (New Castle/Laurel) has been named the ENTERPRISE RENT-A-CAR athlete of the week for the week of March 24, 2008. 

Andrew helped the Behrend Lions to a 6-2 record over spring break competition in Port St. Lucie, Florida by winning in two starts against Ursinus college and Mt. St. Vincent.

Chrobak beat Ursinus by pitching six innings with five strike-outs and three walks, while scattering five hits. Ursinus finished its spring training week with a 7-2 record. In his second outing of the week, he pitched eight innings allowing one unearned run, no walks and struck-out 11 in the victory over Mt. St. Vincent.

"Andy made two quality starts for us in Florida," said head coach Paul Benim. "He is an integral part of our program's success and will be relied upon to continuing doing his thing all spring."


The blue and white will be back in action on Wednesday, March 26 when they travel to Medaille college for their first AMCC conference game of the season.  The double header is set to begin at 1:00 p.m.

The Enterprise Rent-A-Car Athlete of the Week is selected by the Sports Information Staff.
