ATHLETE OF THE WEEK: Ben Medinger

Uwharrie Charter Academy, baseball 

Medinger has been a steady performer for the Eagles, and he’s one of the core veterans on the team. 

UCA went 3-0 last week, including winning a pair of tight Piedmont Athletic Conference matchups with Eastern Randolph. Medinger scored a run in the team’s 3-0 decision against Eastern Randolph. 

Medinger, a senior utility player, is among the top UCA players in on-base percentage and run production. 

He was one of two UCA selections for the All-PAC team in 2022. 

Entering this week with an 8-9 record, the Eagles are within two victories of matching last year’s win total that came in 25 games.
