WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. - Collegiate Baseball and Louisville Slugger today named Wake Forest freshman Allan Dykstra their National Player of the Week for his recent offensive explosion.

Dykstra had one of the single greatest offensive weeks in recent Wake Forest history. The first baseman batted .786 (11-for-14) with five home runs and 11 RBI. He also added three doubles, eight runs scored and drew five walks. Dykstra recorded an absurd slugging percentage of 2.071 and on-base percentage of .850.

Dykstra opened the week with a school-record tying three home runs against Davidson on Tuesday. Dykstra was the ninth player in Wake Forest history to hit three homers in a single game and the first since Jamie D'Antona against Tennessee Tech (May 26, 2001).

He leads the ACC with 11 bombs and a slugging percentage of .784.

The Demon Demons return to the diamond this week with a pair of non-conference games. The Demon Deacons will host Coastal Carolina at 3 p.m. on Tuesday, and then will travel to Rock Hill, S.C. for a 7:30 p.m. contest Wednesday against Winthrop.
