Kinsley Hall (Frankford, Del./Indian River) – CACC Softball Co-Pitcher of the Week
Hall is now a two-time CACC Pitcher of the Week this season after going 2-0 with a .50 ERA over two appearances, both of which were complete games and one of which was a shutout. She gave up just seven hits and struck out 12, against one base on balls.
The sophomore did not allow a runner to reach third base as she retired the final 12 in Tuesday's two-hit shutout at Chestnut Hill, capping a performance that featured eight strikeouts and one walk.
She then surrendered one earned run on five hits, with four strikeouts and no walks, in a win over Bloomfield on Saturday.

The freshman began the week leading all players with six goals and adding a team-high six ground balls, both season-bests, in Wednesday's win at St. Thomas Aquinas.
He then had three points and a team-high two caused turnovers at defending CACC Tournament champion Chestnut Hill on Saturday.
