Athlete of the Week- Amelia DeRosa (Sr., P/3B), Springfield College
Senior Amelia DeRosa (Miller Place, N.Y.) lifted Springfield to four wins this week with a .429 batting average (.6-for-14). DeRosa recorded a team-best nine RBI, including seven in a doubleheader against Eastern Connecticut on Wednesday. The senior infielder also scored eight of Springfield's 37 runs on the week, notched three doubles, one triple, and drew three walks.
DeRosa also went 2-0 in the circle for the Pride, pitching a five-inning, two-hit, complete game shutout in Springfield's NEWMAC opener against Salve Regina on Sunday. DeRosa struck out eight of the 18 Seahawks she faced and needed only 48 pitches to earn the 11-0 win for the Pride.
