FARMINGTON, Maine – The Maine College Baseball and Softball Association revealed its weekly award winners for softball on Tuesday and Husson University softball junior Ana Lang and senior Lydia Rice were honored.

Lang was tabbed pitcher of the week for a fourth time this season, including a third-straight time for both the North Atlantic Conference and MCBSA. Lang was dominant for No. 20 Husson in a 6-0 week of action in NAC play, as the junior surpassed the 500 strikeout mark for her career, in addition to moving into second-place all-time for Husson softball in career strikeouts. Lang totaled 25 innings pitched over five appearances, making four starts, as she recorded an unreal 57 strikeouts on the week, as she gave up just nine hits and five walks, in addition to just two earned runs. Lang's most dominant performance of the week came in a doubleheader sweep of SUNY Cobleskill, as she began in game one with a complete-game shutout, posting a career-high 17 strikeouts and allowing just one hit and one walk. Lang concluded the day with a four-inning outing in game two of the twin bill, where struck out 11 hitters over four innings of relief, as she picked up her 17th win of the season.

Rice earned her first player of the week award of the season for both the NAC and MCBSA after she caught fire at the plate for No. 20 Husson. Rice went 11-21 at the plate, including one double, one triple and five home runs, as she drove in eight runs and scored eight runs herself. Rice drew one walk and one hit by pitch, in addition to a 1-1 clip on stolen bases as she did not strikeout in her six games played, while recording a pair of two-home run games at Thomas and SUNY Cobleskill.

The Eagles return to action tomorrow when they head to the University of Maine-Presque Isle for a doubleheader beginning at 12 p.m.
