Mays, Ivery III Sweep Opening MAC Commonwealth Baseball Player of the Week Honors

Reading, Pa. (Feb. 17, 2026) - Alvernia Baseball seniors Matt Mays and Harold Ivery III swept the opening MAC Commonwealth Baseball Pitcher and Player of the Week honors for their performances during the week of February 9 - February 15, 2026.

Mays was named the MAC Commonwealth Pitcher of the Week and Ivery III was named the MAC Commonwealth Baseball Player of the Week.

Matt Mays went three innings in relief and picked up the save in Alvernia's 7-3 win over Kean University, who was preseason #4, on Saturday. Mays closed out the final three innings for Alvernia, allowing just one hit across three innings of work. He struck out four and did not allow a walk or a run.

Harold Ivery went 4-for-4 to help lead Alvernia to a 7-3 win over Kean University. Ivery finished the afternoon with a double, three singles, and also drew a walk. Ivery gave Alvernia an early 2-0 lead with an RBI single in the fourth inning. He also scored Alvernia's go-ahead run in the sixth off a Jake Chapman single to give Alvernia the 4-3 lead. 

Baseball is back in action on Saturday at Penn Medicine Park in Lancaster to take on Moravian University.
