JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (April 21, 2026) – A day after being named the SoCon Player of the Week, ETSU baseball player Tristan Curless added another honor to his resume on Tuesday by being named to Baseball America's National Team of the Week as a two-way player.
 
For the week, Curless hit .688 (11-for-16) with two home runs, seven runs scored, three doubles, and eight RBI. The Amarillo, Texas native finished with an OPS of 1.987 in the four games. His top performance came at Georgia on Tuesday where he slugged a pair of three-run home runs and finished the game 3-for-5. Curless had at least two hits in every game last week and posted his first four-hit game of the season in Sunday's series finale win over The Citadel. Furthermore, Curless was the winning pitcher in Saturday's 5-4 win over The Citadel. 

 
Curless and the rest of the Bucs will return to action later today when they travel to take on Appalachian State. First pitch between the Bucs and Mountaineers is set for 6 p.m. on ESPN+.
