Kaylie Drew has been named the Lee University Female Athlete of the Week after helping to guide the Lady Flames to a 3-1 mark last week to finish off the regular season.
Drew started the week with a 2-for-4 peformance on Wednesday as the Lady Flames throttled Tennessee Temple, 13-2. The junior drove in two and scored two runs.
Drew opened up the weekend three-game set with the Lady Bucs with a double in two trips to the plate as the Lady Flames fell 5-2 on Saturday night. The third baseman followed that up with a three-run home run in game one on Saturday to help propel Lee to a 5-1 victory.
The Fallbrook, Calif. native finished the week up a perfect 3-for-3 with two doubles, two RBI and a pair of runs scored in Lee's 11-8 slugfest victory over Christian Brothers. On the week Drew was 7-for-12 with a home run, three doubles, seven RBI and five runs scored.
Drew leads the team with 15 homers on the season and is just three shy of matching the single-season record at Lee set by Johana Gomez in 2010. She also boasts team-highs in batting average (.420), slugging percentage (.813), on base percentage (.500), doubles (14) and RBI (53).
Drew and the Lady Flames will now prepare for postseason play as they host the NCCAA Mid-East Region Tournament at Butler Field May 7-8.
