Congratulations to Mechanicville baseball player Jacob Popiel on being named Wasaren Sportsnet Player of the Week.

On Monday against Waterford, Popiel threw a no-hitter leading the Red Raiders to an 8-0 decision over the Fordians.

The Mechanicville right-hander struck out 13 and allowed three walks in pitching his first career gem.

Congratulations to Jacob, our first Wasaren Sportsnet Player of the Week for the spring season.
