Wiesen hit .688 (11-16) with a .938 slugging percentage and .737 on-base percentage during the four-game series. The senior rightfielder/third baseman recorded eight runs, four doubles, three RBIs, three walks and one stolen base. Defensively, he was perfect in 16 fielding opportunities. Wiesen hit .667 (4-6) with runners on base, .600 (3-5) with runners in scoring position and .800 (4-5) with two outs. He reached base 66.7 percent (6-9) of the time when leading off an inning and raised his average 30 points to a .457 mark. The Girard, Ohio, native recorded three hits during each of the final three games. Wiesen opened the series by going 2-for-3 with one run and one double during a 2-1 victory. He went 3-for-4 with three runs, two doubles and one walk during a 4-3 nine-inning win in the nightcap. With the game tied at three, Wiesen drew a one-out walk during the bottom of the ninth inning and scored the winning run from first base on a double into the left center gap. He broke the program's single-season record with his 52nd run of the campaign, surpassing Clint Page's previous mark of 51 set in 1999. Wiesen scored at least three runs in a game for the eighth time in 2016. Wiesen combined to go 6-for-9 with four runs, three RBIs, one double, two walks and one stolen base during Saturday's final doubleheader. In the process, he broke Gannon's all-time record for career runs previously set by Eric Harpster (2006-09) with 127. Wiesen finished 3-for-3 with two walks during the final game of the weekend, becoming the second Golden Knight in program history to record 200 career hits. He tied Chris Miller (2005-08) for ninth place all-time at Gannon with his 82nd career RBI. Wiesen also moved into Gannon's all-time top 10 in games played (168) and top 15 in doubles (26). He extended the team's best current hit streak to eight games while posting at least three hits in a game for the ninth time this season.
