MACON, Ga. - Brittany Stanley of Campbell dealt the third perfect game in program history to produce her first Atlantic Sun Softball Pitcher of the Week honor and Stetson-s Andrea Migliori had three home runs in two games resulting in her second A-Sun Softball Player of the Week Award, the conference announced on Monday.
A sophomore business major, Stanley struck out three in a 2-0 win over Gardner-Webb on Friday night, the first perfect game in the A-Sun this season. Stanley, a native of West Lafayette, Ind., pitched the first perfect game by a Campbell pitcher since April 11, 2005, when Lauren Caviness blanked Appalachian State. Stanley also became the third pitcher in Campbell history to reach 20 wins, joining Andrea Nardolillo (1993) and Christine Hornak (1994-95). Stanley helped the Camels to a sweep of East Carolina as well, their first in over 10 years against the Pirates. The pitcher also helped her own cause at the plate, hitting .500 (4-8) on the week, with two RBI and a pair of doubles.
Migliori drove in six runs in a doubleheader split at 28th-ranked USF (No. 25 in NFCA RPI) on Wednesday, Stetson's first win of the season over a team receiving votes in the polls. In the process, Migliori shattered her own Stetson season records for home runs and RBI, totals that now stand at 19 and 61, respectively. She homered once in the opener and twice in the nightcap, as Stetson won the second game 8-0 in six innings, its first win at USF since 2000. Migliori's slugging percentage was 1.556 on the week, in addition to a .600 on-base percentage.
