ROCK HILL, S.C. (TheSAC.com) – The South Atlantic Conference announced its AstroTurf Softball Players of the Week for games played during April 8 through April 14. Lincoln Memorial collected the player honor with Sierra Hucklebee, while Anderson earned the pitching accolade with Harlie Duncan.
A freshman infielder, Hucklebee hit .651 to lead the Railsplitters to the program's first ever sweep of Lenoir-Rhyne. For the week, the Knoxville, Tenn. native went 8-for-13 at the plate with five doubles, scored five runs, and drove in three runners, alongside two walks. In the win over Tusculum, Hucklebee went a perfect 5-of-5 with two doubles and three runs. This is Hucklebee's first Player of the Week honor of the season.
Duncan, a sophomore right-handed pitcher, threw a three-hitter in the 3-1 win over Mars Hill. Two days later, the Tolono, Ill. native tossed a five-hit shutout versus Queens. Duncan totaled 12 strikeouts over 14 innings of work, pushing her overall record to 15-6. This is Duncan's first Pitcher of the Week honor of the season.
