Leal Honored as SCAC Hitter of the Week
SEGUIN, Texas -- Texas Lutheran softball's Linzee Leal (Corpus Christi/Mary Carroll) has been named the Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference (SCAC) Hitter of the Week, the conference announced today.
The sophomore infielder claimed the first weekly honor of her career with a stellar offensive performance against Hardin-Simmons and No. 20 Babson.
The shortstop went 6-for-9 (.667) with an RBI, four stolen bases, and four runs scored. On the weekend, she tallied a .727 on-base percentage and .667 slugging percentage.
In the field, she was responsible for seven putouts, three assists and one error, maintaining a 0.910 fielding percentage in four games started.
Leal's conference recognition marks the second consecutive week in which a Bulldog has been bestowed a weekly honor; Ashlyn Strother was named SCAC Pitcher of the Week on February 20.
Leal and the Bulldogs are back in action Thursday as they take on Hanover College at 4 & 6 PM at Ed Kruse Stadium. All streaming and live stats links can be found on tlubulldogs.com.
