Indians’ Wenger, Raiders’ Irvin slug their way to POW honors


Habersham’s Peyton Irvin is this week’s BLITZ Pick Player of the Week. It’s his second BLITZ POW Award this season. Irvin was selected for the honor on the heels of a tremendous 3-game stretch in which he hit a homer, drove in 5 runs, and hit .333.

Habersham (17-5; 5-2) is securing a playoff spot for the first time since 2006. Irvin has been very good this year. He also went 2-0 with a microscopic 0.70 ERA over the same 3-game stretch, which included a complete game win. He recorded 12 strikeouts in the process.

This week’s BLITZ Fan Vote Player of the Week honors went to Stephens County’s Eli Wenger. Read more about him on BLITZ.
