Wake Forest sophomore Patrick Frick batted .589 last week, leading the Deacs to a 3-1 record.
GREENSBORO, N.C. -- Wake Forest sophomore Patrick Frick was selected as the ACC Player of the Week, the league office announced on Monday afternoon.
Frick becomes the fourth Deacon recognized as an ACC Player or Pitcher of the Week, joining Jared Shuster (twice) and Chris Lanzilli. No other program has had more than two selections this year.
The Greenville, South Carolina native batted .589 (9-for-16) last week with a home run, double, six RBIs, two walks and two stolen bases.
He started the week by going 2-for-3 with two RBIs in a blowout win over Charlotte on Tuesday.
In Saturday's 9-8 victory over Duke, Frick went 4-for-5 with a home run, a walk and two RBIs. He hit the game-tying single in the seventh inning to set up teammate Bobby Seymour's game-winning homer in the eighth.
Frick also helped the Deacs clinch the series in a 5-4 win over Duke on Sunday. Frick went 3-for-5 with a double and a walk, hitting what proved to be the game-winning RBI single in the top of the 12th inning. The only outs he recorded were a sacrifice bunt and two line drives right at the shortstop.
He raised his batting average to .378, fourth-highest in the ACC.
Georgia Tech's Connor Thomas was picked as the ACC Pitcher of the Week for throwing a complete-game shutout against Louisville.
