First-year student-athlete Miles Hoops had a big pair of games last week, earning both the Knox Athlete of the Week and Midwest Conference Position Player of the Week Award. Hoops becomes the first Knox baseball player to earn the MWC award since Hayden Derlein won it on March 10, 2025.

In two games last week, Hoops went 5-7, meaning he got five hits in seven at-bats, drove in five runs (RBI), hit a double, and scored four times. In the second game of a doubleheader vs. Eureka, Hoops hit a grand slam. The Prairie Fire split the series with Eureka, earning their first win of the season. Hoops also successfully stole three bases in three attempts, collecting his first two multi-hit games of his collegiate career (more than one hit per game).

Knox is in action playing in the Russ Matt Spring Games in Florida, starting today.
