2017 KJCCC D1 Softball Players of the Week, Week 6

Caylie Kifer hit a pair of home runs for Butler in a doubleheader sweep of Garden City on Wednesday and was 4-6 at the plate (.667). The freshman went 3-4 in the first game with a double and a homer and drove in five runs while scoring three of her own. Then in the second game, she was 1-2 with another home run and two more RBI, giving her seven for the day.

Monique Ashley was solid in three appearances for the Lady Saints on their annual Spring Break trip to Arizona.  The freshman posted a 0.42 ERA on the week, allowing just one earned run in 16 2/3 innings pitched while striking out 18 and walking just two.  Monday against Scottsdale she fired a complete game three hitter, striking out eight in a 2-1 Seward win.  Thursday she entered out of the Lady Saints bullpen to spin 3 1/3 scoreless innings while punching out six to earn her 16^th win of the season.  Friday she was nearly flawless against #7 Central Arizona, allowing just two hits into the 7^th inning before a late Vaquero comeback beat Seward 2-1.
