GORHAM, Maine – Senior Kyle Douin (Augusta, Maine/Cony) of the no. 29 nationally-ranked University of Southern Maine Huskies' baseball team was named the Maine College Baseball & Softball Association (MCBSA) Player of the Week. 
 
Earning his third MCBSA weekly honor of the season, Douin batted .586 (17-for-29) with five doubles, four home runs, 16 RBI, 11 runs scored, and a 1.172 slugging percentage during a 4-2 week for the Huskies. He recorded six multi-hit games and had at least one extra-base hit in every contest, highlighted by three straight three-hit performances to open the week. Douin went 3-for-6 with a double, home run, four RBI, and three runs in a 23-5 win over Plymouth State, added three hits and two RBI at Saint Joseph's, and followed with a double, homer, two RBI, and two runs in an 8-3 win over No. 3 Salve Regina. He closed the week with six hits, three doubles, a homer, eight RBI, and five runs over Southern Maine's final three games.
 
Hitting a team-leading .439 on the season (61-for-139), Douin has 11 doubles, four triples and 11 home runs and has 52 RBI.  Leading the team in home runs (11) and RBI (52), Douin is currently tied for the Southern Maine career record in home runs with 36.
