1B/RHP Benjamin Smet-Cooper (Undecided, 2028) was responsible for one of the top offensive performances from a statistical standpoint throughout the entirety of the weekend. To start off his strong tournament, he tallied a 3-for-3 performance, which included a pair of doubles, and also drove in a team-high three runs. Then in Puma’s two games on Saturday, he continued his hot streak at the plate as he combined for four hits in his five at-bats, two of which were for extra bases, a double and a triple. He rounded out his weekend with a one hit performance in the semi-finals loss to the eventual champions in Hitters.
