GREELEY, Colo. – Junior infielder Katie Walling has been named Luna's Student-Athlete of the Week by the Northern Colorado Athletics Department after helping the Bears secure a Big Sky series sweep over Portland State on Saturday.
Walling was a force at the plate throughout the weekend, batting .444 over the two-game set. She tallied four hits in nine at-bats, including a double and a walk-off home run to clinch the series sweep. Walling also scored four runs, drove in five RBIs, and stole a base, compiling eight total bases for an impressive .889 slugging percentage and a .444 on-base percentage.
