Tredaway Named Big 12 Player of the Week

February 24, 2020 | Baseball

NORMAN – Oklahoma baseball junior outfielder Tanner Tredaway has been named the Big 12 Player of the Week after hitting .500 with eight extra base hits and leading the Sooners to a 5-1 record last week, the conference office announced Monday.
 
Tredaway went 12 for 24 at the plate, compiling a 1.125 slugging percentage in six games between Feb. 18-22. He tallied six RBIs, seven runs, three doubles, three triples and hit his first two home runs at OU. He led the Big 12 last week in hits, triples, total bases, runs scored (tied) and home runs (tied) and was second in RBIs and slugging percentage.
 
The Justin, Texas, product doubled and scored the winning run in the eighth inning of the Sooners' win on Saturday. All four of Tredaway's hits in the Friday doubleheader went for extra bases. He accounted for three of OU's four runs in the second game on Friday, scoring the first run and then hitting a two-run home run to give the Sooners a 4-1 lead.
 
This is Tredaway's first Big 12 weekly award, and Oklahoma's first conference award this season.
 
The 15th-ranked Sooners (7-2) travel to Houston for the Shriners Hospitals for Children College Classic this weekend. OU plays Arkansas at 3 p.m. Friday, Missouri at 11 a.m. Saturday and LSU at 11 a.m. Sunday.
