I see the NFCA has recognized Central's Kiley Lythberg as player of the week for March 15-22. Congrats to her for her fine performance for the week which includes a 4-0 record with a .84 ERA while giving up just 3 runs and 12 hits with 23 strikeouts in 25 innings.
Another pitcher who had a pretty good week is Messiah junior Jessica Rhoads. So far this year she is 6-0 with an ERA of 0.00 having given up 1 hit and 0 runs so far in 29.2 innings with 57 strikeouts including a complete game no-hitter against NFCA #13 Wisconsin-Whitewater and a perfect game against Albright. Past history from the last 2 years would indicate that there is no reason to expect the NFCA will give her the recognition she deserves so I will post updates from time to time to keep you informed.
