UCLA infielder Briana Perez and Boise State outfielder Kelsey Hall have been named the Extra Inning Softball Co-Players of the Week for their accomplishments during Week 5 of the college softball season.
Perez batted .833 during her team’s five games this weekend, going 10-12 at the plate with three home runs and fifteen RBIs to her credit. She recorded at least one hit in each game and ended the weekend with three consecutive multi-hit games.
Against Fresno State on Friday, Perez went 3-4 at the plate, with a home run, two RBIs, and three runs scored to her credit. On Saturday, first against the same Fresno State team, Perez went a perfect 2-2 at the plate, hitting a home run and driving in three runs. To end the week against Cal State Bakersfield, she again was perfect at the plate, going 3-3 with a triple and a home run, as well as five RBIs and three runs scored.
Hall recorded ten hits on the weekend, batting .526 after going 10-19 on the week. She recorded a hit in each of her team’s five games, hit four home runs, and notched six RBIs.
In a doubleheader against Houston, Hall was 3-7 with a home run and two runs scored. In a weekend, 3-game series against McNeese, Hall caught fire at the plate. She went 7-12 while in Lake Charles, hitting three home runs with five RBIs. Her finest performance of the week came in the series opener against the Cowgirls, when she was a perfect 4-4 at the plate with two home runs and three RBIs to her credit.
Prior to this season, Hall had not hit a home run in college and had hit just one longball entering this weekend. She quintupled her career home run total in the span of five games and recorded the first multi-home run game of her career.
