Cyr Earns ACC Player of the Week Honors

CORAL GABLES, Fla. — University of Miami infielder Blake Cyr garnered Player of the Week recognition from the Atlantic Coast Conference, the league office announced Monday afternoon.

Cyr batted .500 (8-for-16) with three home runs, 11 RBI and a 1.682 OPS across the Hurricanes’ 3-1 stretch, highlighted by a series win over then-No. 13 Virginia.

The sophomore homered in three of the four games, including a go-ahead grand slam Saturday to cap off Miami’s largest comeback victory since May 13, 1992.

Cyr’s eighth-inning blast helped the Hurricanes erase a nine-run deficit to secure the series over the Cavaliers for the fifth time in the last six full seasons.

The Windermere, Fla., native also scored eight runs, drew four walks and reached base safely 13 times, notching three multi-hit and multi-RBI efforts along the way.

Cyr is the first Hurricane to garner an ACC weekly honor this year.

Miami (9-6) hits the road for the first time Tuesday, facing Florida Atlantic in Boca Raton. First pitch is scheduled for 6:30 p.m.
