Rutgers Scarlett Knights outfielder Trevor Cohen earned Big 10 Freshman of the Week honors following a big week to open the 2023 baseball season.

The freshman from Brigantine, N.J., went 8-for-11 during the opening weekend of his collegiate career,  to lead the Big 10 with a .727 batting average,  collecting hits in his first, five at-bats to start his career.

He added six RBIs, four runs scored, a double, and a stolen base.

The Holy Spirit alum is the first Scarlet Knight to earn Freshman of the Week honors from the conference since May 2021.
