Barstad Named MAC East Player Of The WeekBUFFALO, NY - Junior Sophie Barstad (Canby,OR/Canby) is enjoying a breakout year from the plate and was honored on Monday as the MAC East Player Of The Week for her performance in the Bulls' most recent 10-game stretch.
Barstad led UB with a .393 batting average and 12 RBIs on the week, giving her 21 runs batted in for the season. In a victory over cross-town rival Canisius, Barstad went 2-for-3 with four RBIs. The junior hit two home runs including one in a victory over Fordham, where Barstad drove in four of UB's seven runs. This is the first time that Barstad has won the MAC Player Of The Week award in her career.

On the season, Barstad currently leads the Bulls in batting average (.299), RBIs (21), hits (20) and is tied for the team lead in home runs (4). Barstad is also the ace of the pitching staff as she has 2.43 ERA with 45 strikeouts in 15 appearances. Barstad and the Bulls will play their first game in New York on Wednesday as they travel to Canisius for a doubleheader. First pitch is set for 2:00 pm. |
