Allison had an outstanding week for the Broncos, helping the team to a 2-2 record and a win in its home opener. He hit .500 over the last four games, including a home run in each game on the road at East Tennessee State. During that span, he led the team in at-bats (18), home runs (three), slugging percentage (1.111), total bases (20) and tied for the team-lead in hits (nine) and sacrifices (one). In three of the four games, Allison had multiple hits including two games with three hits. In the Broncos win over the Buccaneers in game three of the series, he went 2-for-4 with a home run, a triple, three RBI and two runs. Allison was a huge part of getting the big innings going for WMU, as he went 4-for-5 in leadoff situations and advanced the runners five out of his nine chances.

The Broncos will head down to Florida for the end of next week and spring break, taking part in the Stetson Tournament and facing multiple teams at the Snowbird Classic. WMU will also face the Detroit Tigers Top Prospects at Joker Marchant Stadium on March 8 at 1 p.m.
