Gregg turned in an incredible week, homering in all four games the Pioneer baseball team played with five total homers. He hit a pair of two-run homers in a dramatic 13-12 win over fourth-ranked Oklahoma City. The 6-foot-1 senior third baseman from Amarillo ended the week 8-for-15 (.533) with a 1.533 slugging percentage. He recorded 11 RBIs and scored seven runs. Gregg started the week leading the NAIA with 11 home runs and had seven homers over an eight-game stretch. He ranked sixth in the NAIA in slugging percentage (.878), ninth in RBIs (30) and 15th in runs per game (1.3). Gregg has started every game at third and has played a key role in team skyrocketing from receiving zero Top 25 votes in preseason to a No. 12 ranking; the team has been ranked higher in only two other seasons.
