JENNIFER MCKINLEY OF MILLSAPS COLLEGE, a senior third baseman from Frisco, Texas, has been selected the SCAC Softball Offensive Player-of-the-Week for games played from Monday, March 8 through Sunday, March 14.

McKinley became the first player in program history to hit three home runs in one game – doing so against No. 10 ranked Mississippi College on the road Friday afternoon as the Majors pulled off the 7-1 upset win.

McKinley went 3-for-3 in the game while recording five RBIs and one walk. She is believed to be just the second player in league history to hit three round-trippers in one contest – following Stefanie Fatih of Austin College, who hit three against Hendrix on March 22, 2008.

McKinley’s hot bat continued on Saturday when she hit went 1-for-2 with a solo home run and two walks against the Lady Choctaws. McKinley finished the week .500 (6-for-12) with four home runs, six RBIs, six runs scored and four walks. She also recorded a slugging percentage of 1.500 in four games over the weekend.
