GABBIE UNDERWOOD OF UNIVERSITY OF DALLAS, a first-year first baseman from La Verne, Calif., has been named the SCAC Softball Offensive Player of the Week for games played from Monday, March 19 through Sunday, March 25.

Underwood boasted multiple hit performances (combining to go 5-for-8) in a doubleheader this past week against McMurry University, as the Crusaders hosted a non-conference series. The freshman tallied two hits, drove in three runs, and scored once in the first outing. She followed with a three-hit outing that included a double, RBI, two runs, and stolen base in Dallas' win.

Underwood has hit safely in nine of the past 10 games, including a seven-game hit streak. Six of those contests have been multiple hit performances. She has driven in at least run during the last six games. For the season, she is batting .375 (10th in the SCAC) with 10 runs scored and 14 runs driven in. 

Other outstanding performances in the SCAC:
First-year outfielder Skylar Ouellette of Texas Lutheran hit .556 and recorded a .636 on-base percentage in leading the Bulldogs to a four-game sweep of Trinity. Ouellette had the walk-off two-run double to end the 8-0 win Friday, and the hit cemented Maitlin Raycroft's no-hitter. She also preserved the no-hitter with a sliding grab in left field on a bloop pop-up. Ouellette had a hit and a run scored in every game, and she stole two bases. Senior first baseman Samantha Cordon of Schreiner had seven hits in 15 at bats (.467 BA) with four RBIs and two runs scored as the Mountaineers took three of four from Centenary College in SCAC road play over the weekend.
