Ohlau Named Player of the Week
        Southern Illinois University Edwardsville junior first baseman Craig Ohlau has been tabbed the Great Lakes Valley Conference Baseball Player of the Week. It is the first time this season a Cougar has held the distinction.
        Ohlau hit .438 last week as the Cougars went 5-1 to stay in the hunt for a GLVC Tournament bid. Overall, he went 7-16 from the plate, including four RBI and four runs scored. He went 5-8 in a doubleheader sweep over Indianapolis last Saturday and was perfect in 46 fielding chances throughout the week.
        Ohlau leads the team with a .335 batting average and has driven in a team-high 32 runs on the year. Ohlau and the rest of the Cougars will next be in action this weekend in a four-game series at Bellarmine. The Cougars must win to keep its hopes alive for a GLVC Tournament bid.
