LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Hanna Contreras of Concordia (Texas) University and Claremont-Mudd-Scripps’ Hayley Schultz have been selected as the Louisville Slugger/National Fastpitch Coaches Association (NFCA) Division III National Player and Pitcher of the Week, respectively.

Contreras, a freshman infielder for the (12-11) Tornados, had a .636 average (7-of-11) with three doubles, three home runs and 12 runs batted in in a 3-0 week for her school. The Austin, Texas, native fueled Concordia’s three-game American Southwest Conference sweep of Howard Payne with a pair of 3-for-4 games. She had two doubles, a homer and six RBI in the opening game and capped the series with a double, homer and five RBI, after going 1-for-3 with a homer in the middle contest.

Schultz, a junior right-hander from Los Angeles, went 4-0 for the (14-7) Athenas, who rejoined the NFCA Division III Top 25 Poll in the others receiving votes category after a 7-1 week. She had a microscopic 0.27 earned-run average and 21 strikeouts in 26 innings. Schultz tossed a four-hitter and three-hitter to beat then-No. 4 Central twice, and also fanned nine batters in a victory over Wisconsin-Eau Claire.
