BUIES CREEK, N.C.-Campbell junior pitcher
Brittany
Stanley was named to the Louisville Slugger/NFCA Southeast
All-Region First Team as a pitcher/utility player by the National
Fastpitch Coaches Association on Wednesday, May 14.
This
is the fourth end of the year award that West Lafayette native has
garnered. Stanley was named the Atlantic Sun's Pitcher of the Year
and First Team All-Conference prior to the A-Sun's Conference
Tournament. The senior then followed it up with her second
consecutive conference tournament MVP award after she went 4-0 with
a 1.35 ERA in Campbell's run through the Atlantic Sun
Tournament.
On
the season the junior is 19-4 with a 1.65 ERA, 12 complete games,
eight shutouts in 152.1 innings from the circle. Stanley has won 17
of her last 20 decisions. During the course of the season she moved
into second all-time at Campbell in career victories and has now
totaled 56 career victories.
As
a hitter she has also stood out with a .284 batting average, six
home runs, 25 RBIs and two-game winning hits.
Stanley is the sixth Camel in program history
to be recognized by regionally by the NFCA, and the second in as
many seasons as Courtney Quinn took home second team honors a
season ago. Other Campbell players that have been honored by the
NFCA include Holly Harris (2005), Shannon O'Bryan (2001, '02),
Martha Covington (1996, 98, 99) and Denelle Hicks
(1996).
A
total of 264 players from 121 different institutions comprise the
10 regional teams. A change this year is the announcement of just
one team per region (First Team), although the team has the same
number of members of the previous year's first and second teams
combined.
The
all-region teams were chosen by NFCA member coaches from the
region, and all the honorees will now be eligible for selection to
the Louisville/NFCA All-America first, second or third teams. In
addition, conference pitchers and players of the year not selected
to the regional teams were added for All-America
consideration.
The
NFCA Division I All-American teams will be announced at 4 p.m.
Wednesday, May 27.
Stanley and the Camels will face No. 15 North
Carolina on Thursday in NCAA Softball Regional action, taking on
the Bulldogs in a 3:30 p.m. contest at Williams Field in Chapel
Hill, N.C.
