Four Hornets Named ODAC Athletes of the Week

             SALEM, VA – Four Lynchburg College student-athletes were named Old Dominion Athletic Conference (ODAC) Athletes of the Week for the week of February 25.

             Senior third baseman Elizabeth Perkins (Kents Store, VA/Fluvanna County) was named the conference’s softball player of the week. She hit .750 in six games thus far in the 2008 season, leading the Hornets to a 6-0 start. Perkins swatted three home runs and a double in 16 at bats to post a 1.375 slugging percentage and walked five times to boast a .818 on-base percentage.

       Freshman right-hander Katie Bruce (Lanexa, VA/Lafayette) earned the ODAC Softball Pitcher of the Week award after a strong start in her first three collegiate starts. Bruce posted a 1.11 ERA in her three starts and allowed just 11 hits with 16 strikeouts in her 19 innings, opponents hit just .155 against her with just one extra-base hit. She also hit .500 to help her own cause (5-10) at the plate.

 Sophomore forward Brittany Dahn (Glen Allen, VA/Deep Run) scored her third ODAC Women’s Basketball Player of the week honor of the season. She helped LC to a 2-1 week, knocking off Randolph College and Washington & Lee University. On the week, Dahn averaged 14.0 points per game, along with 13.7 boards per night. She posted three double-doubles, increasing her league-leading total to 14 on the year. Dahn shot 47% on the week, and 77% from the charity stripe.

 Senior Scott Decker (Clifton, VA/Robinson) became the fourth different Hornet to be named the league’s Men’s Indoor Track & Field Athlete of the Week.  He cleared 15’7” in the pole vault Friday night at Virginia Tech. Decker ranks first in the conference in the ODAC in the event.
