In the Baseball America article, Humeniuk’s performance is ranked as the 14th best college offensive performance of this season. On February 29, the Stonewall, Man., native went 6-for-7, belted a home run and scored four runs in to lead the University of Louisiana Monroe Warhawks to a 26-8 win over Illinois State.

Baseball America notes that Humeniuk’s six hits topped all Warhawks’ hitters that day, though his teammate Trace Henry went 5-for-5.

In all in his senior season, Humeniuk batted .406 and had 28 hits - including three home runs - in 17 games. He also recorded 22 runs, nine walks, two doubles and a triple.

The left-handed hitting slugger, who honed his skills at the Okotoks Dawgs Academy, began his collegiate career with Indian Hills Community College before transferring to the University of Louisiana-Monroe for his junior and senior seasons.
