Galloway garners SCAC Hitter of the Week

LAWRENCEVILLE, Ga. - Senior outfielder Tessa Galloway of Southwestern University was named SCAC Softball Hitter of the Week for her performance this past weekend.

Galloway, a senior outfielder from Spring, Texas, has been selected the SCAC Softball Offensive Player-of-the-Week for games played from Monday, April 7th through Sunday, April 13th.

Galloway had an absolutely dominant offensive weekend as she led the Southwestern Pirates to a 3-1 conference weekend over Austin College to clinch the No. 3 seed in the SCAC Softball Tournament.

Galloway posted nine hits in 14 at bats for a .643 batting average including two doubles, one triple and one homerun with seven RBIs and an unbelievable 1.143 slugging percentage. 

Galloway hit for the cycle in the day one doubleheader, including a 3-for-4 day with a triple, homerun, and four RBIs. She followed that performance up with a 4-for-4 day including a double and two runs batted in as the Pirates exploded for 20 runs on the first day. 

Southwestern sits at 14-15-1 on the year and 10-6 in the SCAC with one weekend of regular season play remaining. They close out the season with a four-game series in San Antonio on Friday and Saturday against Trinity.
