NEW ORLEANS, La. – After helping the Trojans to a 4-1 record at the Frost Classic last weekend, junior catcher Hannah Renn has been named the Sun Belt's Player of the Week.
Renn was 9-for-16 (.562) at the plate with two home runs, a triple and two doubles in Troy's five games. The Ft. Walton Beach, Fla., native now sits third in the Sun Belt in home runs (4) and doubles (5) while boasting the second best batting average on the team at .375.
Renn also scored five runs and drove in four runs on the weekend while stealing four bases in four attempts. She had a career day in Troy's loss to undefeated Purdue on Sunday, going 4-for-4 with a double, a home run and two RBIs.
On top of all of the offensive numbers, Renn has started every game behind the plate thus far this season and has been instrumental in Troy's young pitching staff posting a 2.83 ERA thus far on the year.
Renn, who came to Troy after playing two seasons at Gulf Coast Community College, now has her first career Sun Belt Player of the Week honor.
The honor is the second this season for the Trojans as Ashley Rainey earned Sun Belt Pitcher of the Week honors two weeks ago.
Troy will be back in action this weekend as they travel to Oxford, Miss., for the Red and Blue Classic hosted by Ole Miss. The Trojans will take on the Rebels, Belmont and Chattanooga at the three-day event.
