Mar 07, 2022 | Softball
MEMPHIS, Tenn.– Memphis softball player Gracie Morton had quite the stat line for the Blues City Classic where she led the team at the plate and earned herself a second consecutive American Athletic Conference Weekly Honor Roll award, the conference announced Monday.
Morton, a senior outfielder from Burelson, Texas, played and started in all five games for the Tigers this past weekend where she went 8-15 from the plate for a .471 BA. Morton was responsible for scoring eight of the team's 18 runs and struck out just once in her 17 plate appearances. She also picked up one RBI, one stolen base and recorded zero errors in the field in 12 catches and 11 putouts.
This is the second AAC Weekly Honor Roll award for Morton this season and her fourth overall.
Memphis will be back in action this week when they host Arkansas-Pine Bluff on Tuesday afternoon at 5 p.m. and the UofM Tournament this weekend beginning on Thursday. All games will be played at the Tigers Softball Complex.
