South Arkansas Community College had two NJCAA regional Players of the Week on the diamond for the week ending March 19.

SouthArk sophomore infielder Clay Burrows had a .523 batting average with 11 hits, including three home runs and seven runs batted in, over games that saw the Stars go 5-1. 

Burrows, of Jacksonville, is the first Star ever to be selected as a Region 2 Player of the Week in baseball. The Stars currently lead Region 2 with a 6-2 record (17-9 overall).

Softball outfielder Jaden Boydstun, a freshman from Ferriday, Louisiana, had a .500 batting average with seven hits, including three home runs and five RBIs, over games in which the Stars (8-20, 5-3 in Region 2 play) went 1-3. 

She is the first Star to be selected for Region 2 Player of the Week in softball this season.

Both teams are active at home on Thursday against squads from Rich Mountain, a Region 2 opponent.
