Berylin Lau (Wailuku, Maui, Hawai'i/Kamehameha-Maui) are the Hawai'i Pacific Health Silversword Male and Female Athletes of the Week for competition between March 25-31.
Kleinman hit .500 (6-for-12) with two runs and three RBI in the Silverswords' four-game series at No. 5 Point Loma. His best game of the series was on March 28 when he had three hits including a three-run homer, his first career home run.
Lau had a competitive stretch of singles matches in Southern California and at Hawai'i Hilo last week. In last Wednesday's match at No. 44 Concordia University Irvine, Lau took two points in No. 1 singles off her opponent, Sophie Rachor, ranked 57th nationally in Division II. She followed that performance by forcing a first-set tiebreaker before dropping the set, 7-6 (7-2), against UH Hilo's McKenna Mountain in her final match of the season.
