CHARLOTTE, N.C. – Freshman two-way player Morgen Talley has been named ACC Freshman of the Week for the second time in her young career.
The Palm Harbor, Fla., native posted a .500 batting average and a 1.100 slugging percentage over a three-game span last week. She recorded five hits, including two home runs, to lead the team in both categories.
Talley also drove in a team-best five RBI and scored four runs. Against No. 22/25 Arizona State, she went 2-for-3 at the plate with a home run while also tossing 6.0 innings in the circle, striking out three and allowing just two earned runs.
During the team's third ACC series, Talley helped lead the Pack to a doubleheader sweep over Syracuse. In game one, she threw a complete game, matching her career high with eight strikeouts. She carried a no-hitter into the sixth inning before Syracuse recorded its first hit.
In game two, Talley went 2-for-4 at the plate with a two-run home run, marking her team-best ninth of the season.
Talley previously earned ACC Freshman of the Week honors on March 10.
