Dylan Crews and Paul Skenes earn national Player of the Week honors

LSU boasts two of the top talents in college baseball.

[autotag]Dylan Crews[/autotag] and [autotag]Paul Skenes[/autotag] have been named National Players of the Week by Collegiate Baseball after they had an incredible week.

Crews was 10-for-16 (.625 batting average) with four homers, nine RBI, and nine runs scored as the Tigers went 3-1 with a series win over Arkansas and a midweek win against Central Arkansas.

Skenes went seven innings against Arkansas as he gave up one run and racked up 12 strikeouts with 2 hits and three walks. The loss did not count towards his record as he remains 5-0 with a 0.59 ERA. He will be back in action Friday night against Tennessee at Alex Box Stadium.

LSU will face Grambling in their mid-week matchup tomorrow. The first pitch is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. CT. Then, LSU will welcome the Tennessee Volunteers to Baton Rouge for a heated weekend series.

The Vols are coming off of a weekend sweep of Texas A&M and ranked No. 11 in the country.
