SCOUTING THE COMPETITION LAMAR UNIVERSITY Coming into today, Lamar is currently 10-9 overall and a perfect 3-0 in conference play. The Cardinals are on a five game winning streak in which they swept their first conference series against Houston Baptist. Along with the sweep this season, Lamar defeated the No. 25 Texas Longhorns by a score of 9-1 in Austin, Texas. A shared opponent between the Cardinals and Bobcats has been Florida International. Lamar lost 3-4 in the contest while Texas State won 8-0. The Cardinals have a team batting average of .315 while holding their opponent’s batting average to just .281. Lamar has hit 11 home runs in 19 games this season. Senior Shannon Sain leads the Cardinal offense with a .397 batting average, recording 23 hits so far this season. She also leads the team with 20 RBI and nine doubles. Sain has two home runs on the season. Another force in the lineup is Casey Cromwell. Cromwell carries a .393 batting average, leading the team with 24 hits and five home runs. Laura Napoli and Lauren Dannelley have been Lamar’s main

hurlers. Freshman Laura Napoli has gotten the most time in the circle, throwing 66.2 innings in 12 appearances. The Houston native is 6-5 on the season, with 30 strikeouts and a 3.05 ERA. Junior Lauren Dannelley is 4-4 on the season with a 4.91 ERA and has 22 strikeouts over 45.2 innings of work. The Cardinal pitching staff has a combined 4.11 ERA. MAKE THAT TWO! With a 5-for-6 showing with five RBI and four walks against Georgia Southern, junior Kendall Wiley earned her second Player of the Week nod of the season. Her POW against the Eagles was the third time this season that a Bobcat had been recognized. Her first POW honor came at the Madeira Beach Classic where Wiley was the offensive spark for Texas State after launching six home runs in six games. Against Robert Morris, Wiley hit three home runs, the most home runs in a game by a Sun Belt Conference member since the 2013 season. She now has eight home runs this season, putting her in the top eight all-time in Texas State history. The record for home runs in a season by a single player is 13.
