Recognized as the Midwest Conference Position Player of the Week on Monday, Grinnell College's Luke Porter '23 has now been noticed on a national stage.

Porter, a first baseman from Seattle, Wash. (Lakeside School), was named to the D3baseball.com Team of the Week at the first base position. He is Grinnell's first representative on the Team of the Week since Brock Weirather earned the honor in 2021.

Porter tied a school record by blasting three home runs in a 12-7 victory over Monmouth College Saturday. He was 3-for-3 in the game with five RBIs and three runs scored. Porter played a big part in the Pioneers' three-game sweep of the Fighting Scots, as he hit .667 by going 6-of-9 at the plate with four homers, a double, seven RBIs and six runs. Those figures accounted for a blistering 2.111 slugging percentage. Additionally, Porter posted a perfect 1.000 fielding percentage in 30 chances.
