Player of the Week – Brynn McManus, Liberty – Senior – OF – McMinnville, Ore.
McManus had a sensational week at the plate, helping Liberty (11-15, 4-2 CUSA) to four straight road victories including a series sweep at previously unbeaten MTSU. For the week, she batted 6-11 (.545) with one double, three homers, five RBI, seven runs scored, a .571 on base percentage and 1.455 slugging percentage. On Tuesday at James Madison, McManus went 2-3 with a homer, one RBI and two runs scored. In the sixth inning, her homer (the third of a back-to-back-to-back homer barrage) proved to be the game winner in a 9-8 victory. She then batted 2-2 with a sacrifice fly, homer, three RBI and two runs scored in a 10-5 win over MTSU on Friday. She got Liberty on the board with a sacrifice fly in the first and added a solo homer in the third and RBI single in the fourth. On Saturday, she went 1-2 with a double and two runs scored in a 9-0 win. Then on Sunday, she blasted her third homer of the week in an 8-6 win. She homered to provide insurance in a four-run sixth inning as Liberty came back for the win. 
 
Pitcher of the Week – Allie Floyd, LA Tech – Senior – East Bernard, Texas
Floyd (7-6) tossed two complete-game shutouts and recorded her 12^th career save against Delaware as the Bulldogs (17-10, 3-3 CUSA) swept the Blue Hens this weekend. The senior logged 13 innings in the circle and allowed just five hits, none for extra bases. She posted a 0.00 ERA with 15 strikeouts. Floyd pitched seven innings on Friday night, allowing four singles while striking out eight for a season high. She earned a one-inning save on Saturday, striking out one and not allowing a hit, walk or run. Floyd entered with an 8-7 lead and was required to face the top of the Delaware order but retired the side in order. Floyd capped the weekend with a five-inning complete-game shutout on Sunday. She added six strikeouts, and the lone hit she allowed did not leave the infield.
 
Freshman of the Week – Makenna Moore, Jax State – Pitcher – Grain Valley, Mo.
In 17.1 innings of work over three appearances, Moore allowed just one earned run and racked up 13 strikeouts. The Gamecocks (20-8, 5-1 CUSA) swept then-first place WKU over the weekend to vault into the top spot in CUSA. On Sunday, she tossed a complete game shutout against WKU to improve to 6-1 on the season, while posting seven strikeouts and two walks. Though she didn’t factor into the decision in Friday night’s win over the Hilltoppers when the Gamecocks snapped their 14-game win streak. She also tossed six shutout innings against Samford on Wednesday, when she allowed just three hits.
