Seven Future Rams Sign NLIs to Play Baseball at URI


March 23, 2009

KINGSTON, R.I. - Rhode Island seniors Luke Demko (Gilford, N.H.) and Dan Rhault (Lincoln, R.I.) were tabbed Atlantic 10 Pitcher and Co-Player of the Week, respectively, after leading the Rams to a 4-1 record this past week.

Demko gave up just one hit over 4.1 innings in URI's victories over George Washington (twice) and William & Mary. The Rhody closer totalled six strikeouts and three saves on the week. He currently leads the A-10 with six saves on the season and needs just three more to tie the single-season record (nine) at Rhode Island.

Rhault recorded seven hits - three of which were homeruns - and batted .467 on the week. He also posted a 1.067 slugging percentage with 16 total bases and a .591 on-base percentage. He notched his second multiple-homerun game of the season at George Washington on Sunday afternoon, clearing the fence twice and tallying three RBI in URI's 4-3 victory. Rhault currently leads the team with a .435 batting average, five homeruns, 18 RBI, a .731 slugging percentage and a .517 on-base percentage.

Rhault shares the honor with George Washington's Sean Rockey.

The Rams (12-6, 2-1 Atlantic 10) are back in action on Tuesday afternoon when they travel to Boston for a 3 p.m. game at Northeastern.
