Kreiger Named GLIAC Player of the Week

GLIAC -- Senior Hayley Kreiger (South Haven, Mich.) was named GLIAC Player of the Week as she recorded the first cycle in Davenport softball history last week against Purdue Northwest (April 29). The first baseman also did it in order, a rarity in sports as it has only been done 14 times in the history of Major League Baseball (MLB). Kreiger ended the week batting an astounding .682 (15-for-22), while adding two doubles, a triple, three home runs, eight runs, and nine RBIs through six games played.

Kreiger is the second Panther to receive Player of the Week honors this season as Gabby Palazzolo garnered a Player of the Week selection (Feb. 21)  after setting the school record for home runs in a game (3).

With the regular season officially over, Kreiger and the Panthers (13-30, 7-15 GLIAC) shift their focus to the GLIAC Tournament, which is taking place in Rosemont, Ill. from May 4-7. DU is the No. 5 seed and will play Saginaw Valley State on Thursday (May 4) at 2:30 p.m. EST in round one of the tournament.
