Bluffton player named HCAC softball hitter of the week
Junior shortstop Caylin Morstadt (Delaware/Rutherford B. Hayes) has been named the Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference Softball Hitter of the Week for the second time in three weeks!
Morstadt hit .412 with a team-high .882 slugging percentage and .545 on-base percentage to lead the Beavers as Bluffton went 2-4 on the week. The junior smacked a home run at regional-power Alma and had a walkoff two-run double in Bluffton's 10-9 win over Albion on Thursday, a game that the Beavers trailed 8-0 in the 3rd inning. Morstadt drew five walks, drove in six runs, scored six times and finished the week with six extra base hits.
The Bluffton University softball team (4-12, 0-0 HCAC) will host Olivet on Wednesday before traveling to Rose-Hulman for the Heartland Conference opener on Saturday at 1 p.m.
