TKO's Knockout Performance of the Week: Howitzer & hoops recruiting

David Nuño: Grahovac, Wilson, Freshcorn & Harrison

• Gavin Grahovac was 6-for-10 in three games. Two homers. 12 homers in his last 15 games.
   
• Jorian Wilson was 5-for-12 with two home runs and that crazy throw home.
   
• Clayton Freshcorn pitched twice at Florida. He threw 4.1 innings, gave up six hits, one run and struck out four. He picked up saves eight and nine this weekend.
   
• Bear Harrison deserves some props, too.

Luke Evangelist: Bucky McMillan’s recruiting

• Wilson should be the all-time performer of the week.
   
• Bucky McMillan, his staff and the big-money donors that made this transfer portal class possible. This is what McMillan came to Texas A&M for. He has a fan base that is fully behind him. With the portal additions, the high school recruiting and the retention of talent, the arrow is pointing up.
   
• Out of all the guys that McMillan would talk about, either before or after they landed him, I heard more excitement from McMillan about Jalen Shelley. He might be the key next year as a 6-foot-8 wing. They don’t need him to be a high-volume 3-point shooter. They love his athleticism and the projected role he could have on this team.
   
• This team is going to be bottom 110 in average height to being top-60 in average height. A 6-foot-8 guy on the wing is going to be a huge part of that.

Justin Paez: Sydney Lessentine

• Softball pitching deserves some props. Sydney Lessentine threw a complete-game victory on Saturday, allowing just one run on three hits.
