CINCINNATI -- University of Cincinnati junior outfielder Justin Glass (Fort Wayne, Ind. /Carroll) was named to the BIG EAST Conference weekly honor roll on Monday for his performance in four games last week.

Glass batted an impressive .444 (8 for 18) with two runs scored and five RBIs while slugging .444 and reaching base at a .474 clip in four contests versus Northern Kentucky and South Florida.

For the year, Glass is tied for third in the BIG EAST in hits with six and also tied for third in RBIs with five during conference games. The 6-foot-2 slugger leads the Bearcats in batting average, RBIs, slugging percentage and hits.

Glass is the second Bearcat to receive this honor in 2013 after freshman infielder Forrest Perron (Strongsville, Ohio/Strongsville) received the award March 4.
