BUIES CREEK, N.C. - Campbell's softball team (14-13, 2-0 Atlantic Sun Conference), who won all four games last week, looks to keep the winning ways going and will play eight home games over the next seven days. The Camels begin the week with a pair of non-conference doubleheaders against Charleston Southern on March 22 and North Carolina on March 23. Both doubleheaders are slated to begin at 4 p.m. The Camels' game against North Carolina will be the annual "Strike Out Cancer Day" where current Campbell player Amanda Littlejohn and other attending cancer survivors will be recognized. CU then gets back into league play and takes on Florida Gulf Coast for a pair of games on March 26 starting at noon and Stetson for the final two games of the homestand beginning at 4 p.m. on March 28.

The Camels had a 4-0 week last week with doubleheader wins over North Carolina Central (3/17) and conference rival Mercer (3/19). The Camels offense was led by senior Katie Hinton. Hinton was honored by the league as the Atlantic Sun Player of the Week this week after hitting .500 with eight hits, two doubles, seven RBIs and two stolen bases in the team's four wins. The player of the week honor was the first in the career of Hinton and the first time a Campbell player has been recognized by the league this season. Fellow senior Keeli Michael also had a strong week with eight hits, five runs scored, three doubles and two walks. Michael tied a CU record with three doubles in the second game against North Carolina Central. Sophomore Sarah Ling tallied three hits on the week including the game-winning RBI with her two-out bases loaded single in the eighth inning in the first game against Mercer. Junior Taylor McGee continued to torment the Bears of Mercer and hit a two-run home run in the second game to spark the offense. The home run was the third in the career of McGee against Mercer and her sixth overall home run on the season. McGee also had a strong week for CU with two home runs and five RBIs during the four wins. Junior Christina Melton appeared in two games last week for Campbell and went 1-0 with seven strikeout in six innings worked. Senior Katie Woodcock flirted with a perfect game against North Carolina Central and settled for setting a career-high with nine strikeouts against the Eagles. Woodcock also worked in both games of the Mercer series and picked up the win in the first game with 4.2 innings thrown. She then completed the 6-3 second game victory over the Bears with the tying run at the plate. Woodcock enters this week leading the Camels with a 4-1 record, 1.66 ERA and 46 strikeouts in 46.1 innings worked.
