CBN College Players of the Week: Carter Krawchuk, Logan Grant
April 15, 2024

When the time came, it was just too hard to choose.
So, we’re doing something we’ve yet to do, name co-Canadian Baseball Network College Players of the Week. Or, you could consider it a pitcher and hitter of the week, whichever you’d prefer.
Let’s start on the mound.
Seminole State Community College (Fla.) right-hander Carter Krawchuk (St. Catharines, Ont.) threw a seven inning perfect game as the Raiders downed Hillsborough 8-0.
The former Fieldhouse Pirate struck out 13 as his team ran their win streak to six games.
It’s hard to beat a perfect game but the week catcher Logan Grant (Chestermere, Alta.) had simply couldn’t be ignored.
Playing in all five of No. 13 Bellevue’s games, Grant collected 13 hits, four walks and 17 RBIs.
Good, right?
But one must dig deeper to understand just how good.
Grant hit a two-run home run in a 13-10 midweek win over Midland before hitting a two-run home run and a solo shot as the Bruins beat Mayville State 13-2 in Game 2 of their four-game series.
That’s not all, though.
Grant’s best performance came in a 20-7 Game 4 victory to complete the sweep.
In the finale, he went 5-for-6 with a solo, a pair of three-run home runs, a double and a triple. When the game was over, he had nine RBIs.
Now you know why Carter Krawchuk and Logan Grant are both deserving of the Canadian Baseball Network College Player of the Week for April 8 to 14.
