East Player of the Week
Maddy Grimm, Kent State, Infielder
Senior, Stahlstown, Pa./Ligonier Valley
Maddy Grimm had another monster week with a .636 batting average, 1.727 slugging percentage and .789 on-base percentage to lead Kent State’s offense. Grimm hit four home runs and had eight RBIs in just 11 official at-bats, as she was walked seven times and hit by a pitch. Six of the seven walks were intentional, and all seven came on just four pitches, as Northern Illinois decided to take the bat out of the slugger’s hands. Grimm collected both of the Golden Flashes’ hits off 2016 MAC Pitcher of the Year Savannah Jo Dorsey in the first game of Tuesday’s doubleheader and then homered in her first two at-bats in the second game against the Bobcats.
