    Six teams have officially punched their tickets to the Conference USA Tournament after three more schools qualified over the weekend. Houston, TCU and Memphis have now joined East Carolina, Southern Miss and Tulane in guaranteeing a spot in Houston. East Carolina has clinched at least a share of its first regular season championship and can clinch the title outright and earn the No. 1 seed in the tournament with just one more victory.

    Should ECU be swept by USM, the Golden Eagles would be the top seed if Tulane loses at least once at Houston. Should Southern Miss sweep East Carolina and Tulane sweep Houston, Tulane would be the top seed, Southern Miss would be the No. 2 seed and ECU would be the No. 3 seed.

    The fight for the final two spots is down to four teams. USF needs just one win against Louisville to secure its spot in the tourney. UAB leads Louisville by 1 1/2 games, but the Cardinals hold the tie-breaker should the two schools end up tied. Charlotte remains alive, but would need to sweep its series at TCU and get help from three other teams to gain a berth.


    HITTERS OF THE WEEK
    ROB JOHNSON, HOUSTON

    Junior, C/OF, Butte, Mont.
    Johnson scored at least one run, recorded at least one RBI and produced two hits in each game of Houston's series victory at Louisville. He finished the weekend 6-for-13 (.462) with four runs scored, while extending his hitting streak to 10 games. In Sunday's series finale, Johnson produced his first multiple home run game and closed out the weekend with three homers and eight RBI.

    BRIAN BOGUSEVIC, TULANE
    Sophomore, OF/LHP, Oak Lawn, Ill.
    Bogusevic hit .538 (7-for-13) with a 1.000 slugging percentage in a series sweep of Saint Louis. He posted a pair of three-hit games and had at least two RBI in each outing. Bogusevic gave Tulane the sweep with a walk-off grand slam on Sunday. He scored four times on the week, hit two home runs and drove in eight runs.

    PITCHER OF THE WEEK
    KYLE SCHMIDT, USF

    Junior, RHP, Palm Harbor, Fla.
    Schmidt picked up two victories last week, while posting a 0.90 ERA over 10 innings pitched. On May 11, he threw four shutout innings against Stetson, allowing two hits and striking out two. On Sunday, he helped USF to a series win at UAB after allowing one earned run on five hits over six innings, fanning five and walking only one.


    CHARLOTTE
    The 49ers dropped all three games of their series against No. 17 Southern Miss this past weekend. Senior RANDALL POPLIN connected on his tenth home run of the season against Southern Miss. He joins JAMIE RUSCO as 49ers with double-figure home run totals. This marked the first time Charlotte teammates have reached double-figures in home runs since 1998. Rusco's 14 round-trippers is the fifth-best single-season total in school history. Poplin collected a season-high five RBI in the final home game of his career against Southern Miss. Freshman RHP ADAM MILLS is tied for the team lead in wins with four and has recorded 37 strikeouts with only 14 walks.

    CINCINNATI
    The Bearcats dropped three games at Memphis this past weekend, including one in extra innings and another by one run. Sophomore MARK MUSCENTI etched his name in the Cincinnati record books as he broke Kevin Youkilis' record for career hit-by-pitch. With four HBP's against Memphis, Muscenti now has 36, breaking Youkilis' mark of 34. For the second time this season, the Bearcats hit back-to-back home runs, this time coming in the ninth inning of game two of Saturday's doubleheader. UC's JIM OLDS and DREW SAYLOR did the trick for the Bearcats, matching the accomplishment of JON DeLUCA and PAT LeMASTERS earlier this season. The home run by Olds was the first of his UC career. Senior STEVE PICKERELL accomplished a rare feat by blasting two home runs in UC's eight-run fourth inning outburst at Ball State. One of Pickerell's homers was the first grand slam of his career, while the other marked the 100th hit of his career.

    EAST CAROLINA
    East Carolina won its seventh straight Conference USA series last weekend and clinched at least a share of its first C-USA regular season title. The Pirates posted a 4-1 record last week, knocking off UNC Wilmington Tuesday, 3-0, and completing the season sweep of N.C. State Wednesday, 7-2. ECU took the first two games of the TCU series before having its record 22 game win-streak in C-USA play snapped on Sunday. Junior 1B RYAN NORWOOD set a new school record for doubles in a season with his 24th two-bagger on Saturday. Senior OF JAMIE PAIGE went 8-for-18 last week and added five stolen bases. ECU's pitching staff compiled a 2.00 ERA in five games last week, allowing 10 earned runs in 45 innings and striking out 36. Sophomore C JAKE SMITH hit his first two home runs of the season in the 14-3 win over TCU in the second game of the series. Junior OF DARRYL LAWHORN hit .571 in four games last week going 4-for-7 with three runs scored on one double and a home run as he slugged 1.143.

    HOUSTON
    The Cougars won two-of-three at Louisville this past weekend. Houston rallied with four runs in the top of the eighth inning in Sunday's finale to take an 8-4 victory, marking the Cougars first win this season when trailing after seven innings. UH pounded out 19 hits in the series opener and had at least one hit in every inning. At one point in game two, the Cougars had recorded at least one hit in 18 consecutive innings, dating back to the series finale against Memphis on May 9. Sophomore C BRETT LOGAN and sophomore utility player KEVIN ROBERTS each tied UH single-game records with five hits on Saturday. Roberts had nine consecutive hits at one point with three against Memphis on May 9 and six straight at Louisville in Saturday's twin-bill. Sophomore OF TRAVIS TULLY became just the fourth player in school history to record a 20-game hitting streak with an eighth-inning single on Sunday. Senior 1B THANOS PAPAVASILIOU became the 11th player in school history to pound out three doubles in a game on Sunday.

    LOUISVILLE
    The Cardinals dropped two-of-three games to Houston this past weekend. U of L won the second game of Saturday's doubleheader, 7-5, with a five-run eighth inning. Senior OF MARK JURICH hit a three-run homer to tie it and RON BRAUN won it with his team-leading fifth triple of the season that scored two runs. Jurich ranks in the league's top five in home runs (18) and RBI (57), accounting for 35% of the team's homers and 20% of the team's RBI. In 16 games as Louisville's leadoff hitter, he is batting .388 with 10 homers, 25 RBI and a .881 slugging percentage. Jurich has played every inning this season and has failed to reach base in only two games. Freshman SS CHRIS CATES was the Cards leading hitter last week, going 5-for-14 with a double and a pair of runs scored.

    MEMPHIS
    The Tigers secured a spot in the Conference USA Tournament with their 5-4 victory over Cincinnati Sunday. It will be the Tigers' first trip to postseason play since they advanced to the semifinals of the 2001 C-USA Tournament. By finishing off the sweep of Cincinnati, the Tigers gave their head coach DAVE ANDERSON his 100th victory in three-plus seasons at Memphis. The sweep was the second for the Tigers in league play this season at home. Senior JARRETT GRUBE took part in his third league shutout in game one of Saturday's doubleheader. Grube logged 7.2 innings and fanned 10 UC batters in the Tigers' 3-0 extra-inning win over the Bearcats. The shutout was a C-USA-leading fourth in league play by the Tigers. Junior Bill Edwards held UC scoreless through six innings, allowing just two hits in his sixth league start of the season on Sunday.

    SAINT LOUIS
    The Billikens dropped three games at No. 13 Tulane over the weekend. Sophomore OF JOHNNY SWEENEY has hit safely in 12 of his last 15 outings and has two or more hits in seven games over that stretch. Junior PATRICK VALDEZ matched his career-high of three RBI with a career-best four hits in the series finale at Tulane on Sunday. He also had a pair of hits, including a double, in Saturday's game. In the Billikens wood bat game against Southern Illinois on May 12, senior JOE BUEHLER struck out a career-high seven batters in just four innings. SLU's next win will mark the 300th career victory for head coach BOB HUGHES.

    USF
    The Bulls won two-of-three at UAB over the weekend to close out a 3-1 week. USF opened the series with a 23-5 victory on Friday, reaching season-highs for runs scored and hits (22). Junior 3B JEFF BAISLEY went 5-for-6 with two RBI and five runs scored. The five hits tied the school record for hits in game. His five runs scored also tied the school mark for runs in a single contest. Junior C DEVIN IVANY (3-for-6) notched four runs scored and four RBI, thanks to a grand slam home run in the top of the fourth inning. Freshman RHP CASEY HUDSPETH picked up his eighth win of the season in the outing, striking out a career-best 10. His eight wins are the most by a USF freshman since Mark Roberts and Pat Ryan each won eight games in 1994 and he leads the team in strikeouts with 71. Hudspeth is tied for the league lead in victories in C-USA games with five. Junior OF BRYAN HIERLMEIER notched his 10th double of the season on Sunday to become the only USF player this season with 10 doubles and 10 home runs.

    SOUTHERN MISS
    Southern Miss swept a series at Charlotte over the weekend and has now eight straight Conference USA games, including five on the road. Sophomore 1B MARC MADDOX opened the series by hitting a pair of home runs in Friday night's 11-4 win and then added a solo homer in Saturday's 3-1 victory. Five of junior SS MATT SHEPHERD's seven hits in the series were doubles. He had two doubles on Friday and Sunday and is tied with junior 2B JARRETT HOFFPAUIR for second place in C-USA with 23 two-baggers. The 23 doubles match the most by a USM player since Jeremy Schied hit 25 in 1998. Eight different Golden Eagle starters recorded at least one multiple hit game in the Charlotte series as USM finished with 42 hits in the series. Senior RHP AUSTIN TUBB registered saves in back-to-back games to become the school's all-time leader in that category with 19. Freshman RHP PATRICK EZELL, who has been filling in for CLIFF RUSSUM as the team's No. 1 starter for the past three weeks, now has a 66-9 walk-to-strikeout ratio. He has five wins and a 3.91 ERA.

    TCU
    The Horned Frogs dropped two-of-three games to No. 5 East Carolina in Kinston, N.C. this past weekend. Freshman OF AUSTIN ADAMS was the Frogs hitting star, registering back-to-back three-hit games on Friday and Saturday before hitting a three-run home run on Sunday that provided all of TCU's runs in a 3-1 victory. Freshman CHAD HUFFMAN has hit safely in his last eight games, going 17-for-32 (.531) over that span. He leads all C-USA freshmen and ranks second in the league in batting (.405) and on-base percentage (.498), while leading the circuit in being hit by pitched with 19. Junior RHP CHAD UNDERWOOD made his first collegiate start on Sunday and moved into a tie with CLAYTON JEROME for the team lead in wins with seven. He held the league's top hitting team to just three base hits in five innings, while striking out three. TCU pitchers have allowed a league-low 39 home runs this season.

    TULANE
    The Green Wave swept Saint Louis over the weekend and remain tied for second place in the C-USA standings. Sophomore P/OF BRIAN BOGUSEVIC, the conference's Hitter of the Week, was also a star on the mound. He struck out a career-high 10 over eight innings to earn his eighth win of the year. He has struck out a team-high 74 batters with just 20 walks over 85 innings pitched this year. With six home runs over the weekend, Tulane has now hit at least one home run in each of the past seven games. The Wave has hit multiple home runs in nine of the last 12 outings. In his first season at Tulane, junior GREG DINI has started 36 games at catcher and leads the team with 10 home runs, 114 total bases and a .606 slugging percentage. He has added 14 doubles, 46 RBI and is batting .372.

    UAB
    UAB dropped two-of-three games to USF this past weekend, but leads Louisville by 1 1/2 games for the final spot in the Conference USA Tournament. Junior reliever ERIC ROBERTS recorded a career-high 10 strikeouts against USF on Sunday. He allowed only one run on three hits through six innings of work against the Bulls. Roberts leads UAB in strikeouts (80) and appearances (31). Junior DH NATHAN McCORKLE led the Blazers at the plate last week, going 7-for-13 (.538) with two doubles, two home runs and six RBI. Senior IF DANIEL HILL also had seven hits last week, including a double and his team-leading 11th home run of the season. With 21 career homers, he has moved into ninth place on UAB's all-time list. Junior RHP ADAM PRICE picked up his team-leading fifth win of the season on Saturday, nearly throwing a complete-game before Roberts came in and struck out Myron Leslie to pick up his fourth save of the year.

    FOUR NAMED HOWSER SEMIFINALISTS
    Four Conference USA standouts have been named as semifinalists for the 2004 Dick Howser Trophy, given to the nation's top collegiate baseball player. East Carolina's Ryan Jones and Trevor Lawhorn are joined by Ryan Frith and Jarrett Hoffpauir of Southern Miss in receiving National Player of the Year consideration.

    The Dick Howser Trophy, given in memory of the former Florida State University All-America shortstop and major league player and manager who died of brain cancer in 1987, is regarded by many as college baseball's most prestigious award. Criteria for consideration for the trophy include performance on the field, leadership, moral character and courage, qualities that were exemplified by Dick Howser's life.

    Conference USA's four semifinalist selections tied for third among all Division I leagues. Only the SEC (6) and Big 12 (5) had more.

    MORE ECU MARKS
    Sunday's 3-1 loss to TCU in Kinston snapped East Carolina's consecutive league win record at 22 games. Here's a look at the longest win streaks in league play:

    14 Tulane (4/19/98-5/17/98)
    13 USF (3/24/96-4/21/96)

The sophomore ranks second on the team and 13th in Conference USA this season with a .358 batting average. Nelson was the only sophomore named to the 11-player first team and was one of four sophomores selected overall. His name will autmotically appear on the All-American ballot, with the teams being announced on June 1.
