Hobart's historic NCAA tournament appearance earned the Statesmen the final three Liberty League Weekly Awards of the season. The conference office named junior first baseman Sean Garvin the Performer of the Week, junior pitcher Trevor Kimball the Pitcher of the Week and first-year relief pitcher Joe Dunham the Rookie of the Week.
 
Hobart made its second ever NCAA playoff appearance over the weekend, playing four games against nationally-ranked opponents. The Statesmen defeated No. 14 Mount Union 4-1 in their opener on Friday. Hobart fell to No. 8 Salisbury 11-6 on Day 2, but bounced back with a decisive 10-1 victory over the Purple Raiders in an elimination game. On Sunday, the Statesmen again faced the Sea Gulls, coming up short in a thrilling 4-3 12-inning regional final.
 
Garvin was named to the Salisbury Regional All-Tournament team after hitting .421 in four games. He had eight hits over the weekend, including five extra-base hits. Garvin produced an RBI double in his first NCAA tournament at-bat to open the scoring against Mount Union on Friday. Against Salisbury on Saturday, he delivered a two-RBI single. Later that day, he went 3-for-4 with a triple and two home runs, driving in four and scoring twice in the rematch with the Purple Raiders. On Sunday, he was 3-for-6 at the plate.
 
The only player to start all 47 games, Garvin enjoyed a record-breaking season. He hit .398 with a season-record 72 hits, including a record 19 doubles, five triples and six home runs. Garvin scored a record 51 runs and drove in a team-leading 50 runs.
 
Kimball delivered his best performance of the season in the elimination game against Mount Union on Saturday. He scattered seven hits over a career-high eight innings, allowing just one run, while striking out a career-high matching seven.
 
Kimball pitched in nine games this season, starting eight. He was 4-1 with a 4.66 ERA and 24 strikeouts in 38 2/3 innings.
 
Dunham was also named to the Salisbury Regional All-Tournament team after pitching 7 2/3 innings without allowing an earned run in two appearances. He made his NCAA tournament debut in Friday's win over Mount Union, pitching 2 2/3 innings, allowing just one hit to earn his first collegiate save. On Sunday, he pitched five innings and did not allow an earned run while striking out three.
 
Hobart finished the campaign with a 32-15 record, eclipsing nearly three dozen team and individual season records this year. The Statesmen topped the program marks for wins in a season, runs, hits, and doubles among many others.
