Millersville, Pa. — Capping a season in which she totaled a career-high 56 hits, senior
Janelle Mrakovich was named to the All-PSAC Eastern Division Second Team at the designated player/utility position on Friday afternoon.
Mrakovich also led the team in batting average (.378) and RBIs (28), while playing a majority of her season at first base or in the designated player position. The Marauder veteran compiled a .987 fielding percentage, converting 155-of-157 chances.
The Middletown, Pa. native racked up a season-high five RBIs in a win over Philadelphia on March 9 and also had a 4-RBI game, including a home run, in a win over Columbia Union on March 15.
