SUMMER COLLEGIATE LEAGUE
Tyler Ogle (McKinney Marshalls) was named Player of the Week by the Texas Collegiate League on July 21. Ogle earned the week six honor by going 6-for-10 with a double and three RBIs in three games. His efforts in the past week have helped give the Marshals a five-game winning streak. Ogle is second on the team with a .312 batting average.
