DALLAS, TX – For the first time in his Panther career, FIU baseball's Brylan West was named Conference USA Hitter of the Week, the league announced on Monday afternoon. 
 
West led the offensive barrage on an Opening Weekend that saw a total of 45 Panthers cross home plate in the three-game series sweep against LIU. The 45 runs scored were also the most in a three-game series for FIU since 2020.

The FIU infielder went 10-for-12 with nine RBIs, 3 doubles, and 2 home runs over the three-game span. In addition, West went a perfect 9-for-9 in Saturday's doubleheader sweep, hitting a home run and drove home four RBIs in each contest respectively.
 
After the opening weekend, the Tampa native leads all of NCAA in batting average (.833) and sixth in hits.
