Senior first baseman Samara Lagway was voted the Sun Belt Player of the Week, the conference announced on Tuesday after helping Texas State go 4-1 at the Wildcat Invitational over the weekend in Tuscon, Ariz.
“I could not be prouder of this young lady,” head coach Ricci Woodard said in a statement. “Samara has fought so hard for this success, and we could not be happier for her.”
After taking wins over Loyola-Chicago and North Dakota on Friday, the Bobcats fell in a nail-biter on Saturday to No. 9 Arizona, 11-10, which ended with a walk-off RBI single for the Wildcats. Lagway finished the game going 2-4 at the plate, batting in four runs for the maroon and gold in the loss.
