Lewis Tabbed MEC Player of the Week

BRIDGEPORT, W.Va. – Junior infielder Lacie Lewis of the Concord University softball team was named Mountain East Conference Player of the Week, presented by The Health Plan, the conference office announced Monday afternoon.
 
In four games last week, Lewis crushed three home runs and drove in five runs while batting .400 (6-for-15) and logged at least one hit in all four games as CU went 3-1.
 
The Kearneysville, W.Va. native got her weekend started with a 3-for-5 performance at the plate in game one against West Liberty Friday. She clubbed a double in the third inning before winning the game on a walk-off home run in the bottom of the ninth inning, her second game-winning homer of the season. Lewis wasn't finished with the Hilltoppers as she led off game two with a solo home run.
 
On Saturday against Wheeling, she picked up a base knock and drove in a run on a sacrifice fly in game one before smashing her team-best ninth home run in game two. The Mountain Lions swept both games from WU, 12-5 and 13-5.
 
On the season, Lewis ranks second in the MEC with nine home runs and leads the league in with 35 runs batted in. She owns CU's best batting average this spring, slashing .378/.430/.676 with a 1.106 OPS.
 
West Virginia Wesleyan's Kendall Stoffel was voted as the MEC Pitcher of the Week.

The Mountain Lions host Glenville State for a doubleheader Wednesday at 2:00 p.m.
