Macon, Ga. -- ETSU's Amanda Haverman (Kirkwood, Mo./Sports Management) and UNF's Ashley Parenteau (Palm Beach Gardens, Fla./Special Education) earned Co-Player of the Week honors while UNF's Kelli Pitts (Jacksonville, Fla./Nursing) was named Pitcher of the Week honors as announced today by the conference office.

Haverman hit .500 for the week, including a 3-for-5 performance in the doubleheader sweep over league-leader Stetson and was only one of three Lady Bucs to record a hit against a powerful Virginia Tech pitching staff. The sophomore went 4-for-8 on the week, with two homeruns, seven RBI, and two runs scored; posted a 1.250 slugging percent with 10 total bases - hit a two-out grand slam in the fifth inning to lift ETSU to the 4-1 game one victory over Stetson and hit a three-run blast in game two.

Parenteau had two game-winning home runs against crosstown rival Jacksonville, including a walk-off home run in the opening game of a doubleheader in the bottom of the 10th inning. She followed that with another home run in the nightcap that broke open a 1-1 tie. For the week the junior hit .429, going 6-for-14 at the plate with six RBIs, a walk and a sacrifice fly along with an .857 slugging percentage and a .438 on-base percentage. Parenteau had two multi-hit games on the week and extended her hitting streak to 11 games.

Pitts closed out her career at the UNF Softball Complex with a pair of wins this week, going 2-0 with a 0.00 ERA. Pitts did not allow an earned run against Jacksonville or Armstrong Atlantic State, allowing only one extra base hit in 13 innings of work. Pitts walked two and struck out 10 hitters on the week, including a season-high seven strikeouts against Jacksonville.
