Robert Morris star Courtney Poulich has hit some towering home runs. Moon shots in Moon Township.
Word of her historic softball season also has plenty of distance, because it landed her a national award.
Poulich, a redshirt senior outfielder from Mt. Pleasant, was named a D1Softball Mid-Major Player of the Week.
Poulich was a D1Softball Preseason Mid-Major Top 100 selection, at No. 80, and has lived up to the hype.
The long bomber broke the Horizon League record for home runs in a season.
She went 12 for 19, belting four homers and driving in 14 runs across five games.
She added two doubles and a triple and scored nine runs.
Her OPS for the week was 2.152.
Her homer total for the season stands at 21. She also leads the conference in slugging (1.115), OPS (1.672), runs (56) and RBIs (64).
Poulich, the Horizon League Championship MVP last season, has a .469 batting average and a .557 on-base percentage.
In 126 career games, Poulich has slashed .341/.430/.782 with 43 homers, 127 hits, 122 runs and 137 RBIs.
This is not Poulich’s first brush with national recognition. Poulich last season was a National Fastpitch Coaches Association honorable mention.
A 22-year-old record is no more! @cpoulich8 now stands alone at the top of the @HorizonLeague record book with 21 home runs — the most in league history!???????? pic.twitter.com/dEXh7BDyAx
