ATLANTA, GA- Sophomore Hannah Doggett was named second-team All-SAA, headlining four Majors named to the all-conference team.
Doggett was joined by Danielle Faucheux, Rayne Gravat and Megan Murray on the all-conference team and were named honorable mention.
Doggett hit .305 this season and tied for the team lead with 20 runs batted in. She was second on the team in doubles while scoring 12 runs in 29 games. The sophomore earned the second-team honor at designated player after she battled an arm injury and was limited to a largely offense-only season.
This is the second award this week for Hannah. Coach Roland Rodriguez presented her with the Perry Tyner-Tate Fighting Spirit Award at Monday's student-athlete award ceremony. This award is presented annually to a Millsaps College softball player who best exemplifies the dedication, commitment, loyalty, and "never quit" attitude which Perry so powerfully demonstrated throughout her life. Statistics aside, this honor is all about representing Major Softball with pride, dignity, and a spirited attitude that is infectious to everyone connected with our program.
"This was an easy decision to present Hannah this award," Coach Rodriguez said. "I didn't notice just a "one-time" situation, she carried this spirit with her throughout the whole season. She knew her situation when she came back to campus in August and I was unsure how strong-willed she would be in tackling this obstacle in her career. I have no doubt she will continue to be an inspiration to current and future Majors."
Faucheux led the team in wins with 10 while finishing top-five in the conference in complete games (14), strikeouts (81) and earned run average (2.85).
Gravat had another solid year for the Majors. The sophomore tied for the team lead with 20 runs batted in and led the Majors with four home runs and 24 runs scored while batting .326. Gravat also completed her second-straight season with a 1.000 fielding percentage.
Murray led the team with a .338 average and slugging percentage (.558). The sophomore led the team with 11 doubles and was second on the team in runs scored and runs batted in.
