The Cornelius, N.C. native finished the week with a 1.067 slugging percentage, a .625 on-base percentage and five stolen bases to go along with her lofty batting average.

The senior center fielder moved into a tie for second place in the Campbell record books with 20 career home runs and needs just seven stolen bases to claim the CU career record.
