Rode led the Highlanders at the plate going 9-for-18 (.500 batting average) with a pair of doubles, three home runs, nine runs batted in and seven runs scored in a 3-2 week for the Highlanders. He homered in both ends of a doubleheader against St. John Fisher to start the week and followed that up with back-to-back three-hit efforts with a pair of RBI in a win over Elmira and a home, double and four RBIs in a victory over Keuka. It is Rode’s second E8 weekly honor of 2021.
