McKinley Selected SCAC Softball Player of the Week

SUWANEE, Ga. -- Jennifer McKinley of Millsaps College, a junior infielder from Frisco, Texas, has been selected the SCAC Softball Offensive Player of the Week for games played from Monday, April 13 through Sunday, April 19.

McKinley raised her batting average 41 points during a 3-1 week for Millsaps after hitting a stifling .692 (9-for-13) from the plate with 11 RBIs, four doubles and a three-run home run. McKinley also had three multi-hit games (one vs MS College and two vs Sewanee) to give her 12 on the year, in addition to slugging 1.231 during the four-game stretch and carrying an on-base percentage of .733.

On the year, McKinley is batting at a .400 clip and has a team-leading 13 doubles which ranks fourth in the SCAC.  She also leads the team in hits, homers, RBIs, total bases, slugging percentage and multiple RBI games.

The POTW selection is her first of the season and second of her career, becoming the second Major to earn the weekly award in 2009 (Karoline Kremers, Week 4).

Millsaps will be the East's No. 3 seed in the upcoming SCAC Tournament, opening play on Friday at 2 p.m. against tournament host and the West's No. 2 seed Trinity University.
