St. Thomas Aquinas College Softball player Ashley Landolina was named the East Coast Conference Rookie of the Week on Monday, following the Spartans 3-1 week.
Landolina posted a scorching .615 batting average, going 8-for-13 at the plate, with 5 RBIs and 4 runs scored in 4 contests during last week. Ashley also contributed two doubles and a homer, while putting up a .615 on-base percentage, a 1.000 slugging percentage and a 1.615 on-base percentage plus slugging.
The freshman infielder from Tolland, Conn. has also been playing stingy defense for the Spartans, as Landolina posted a .947 fielding percentage, while making only 1 error in her 4 games last week at shortstop.
The 10-8 Spartans return to action at home this week with a pair of East Coast Conference doubleheaders. On Wednesday, April 5th, St. Thomas Aquinas faces off with cross-river rival, Mercy College, with first pitch scheduled for 2:30pm. Then, STAC hosts the Purple Knights of the University of Bridgeport on Friday, April 7th at 3pm.
