Chatham Charter baseball’s Zach Cartrette earns athlete of the week honors for the week of April 7.
Cartrette did it all in the Knights’ 8-0 win over River Mill (second place in the Central Tar Heel 1A conference). At the plate, he went 2-for-3 and knocked in a team-high two RBIs. He also played a large role in the shut out, striking out eight batters and giving up zero hits in the first four innings of the game.
In eight appearances on the mound, Cartrette has put together some impressive performances this season. As of Sunday, he’s recorded 55 strikeouts and has only given up five earned runs (1.17 ERA) in 30 innings.
