Already armed with All-American honors from various outlets, postseason and preseason, from his freshman season, Eeles has the potential to put together one of the best four-year stat lines in conference history.
 
The Yellow Jackets offense certainly kept the scoreboard operators busy with double-digit run production in a pair of victories against West Virginia Wesleyan over the past week.
 
Cedarville combined to beat West Virginia Wesleyan by a combined count of 29-2 while also playing against Rockhurst in regional action.
 
Eeles, the league’s reigning batting king after hitting .424 as a rookie, went 7-for-11 at the plate (.636) while recording five RBI and scoring seven runs in the three games.
 
He also roped his first career home run, a two-run shot in the third inning of game two that made the score 10-1.
 
Eeles swiped a pair of bases and boosted his season average up to .342 on the spring. As a team, Cedarville is hitting over .500 as the program embarks on its Spring Break trip.
