INDIANAPOLIS (3/21/23) – Detroit Mercy softball student-athlete
Rusti Glenn was named Nike® Horizon League Softball (#HLSB) Player of the Week while
Olivia Warrington was named Nike® Horizon League Pitcher of the Week announced by the league office on Tuesday. This marks the second consecutive week the Titans have garnered Pitcher of the Week honors as
Chloe Spitzer won last week.
Glenn, a freshman from Fort Mohave, Ariz., hit a blistering .800 going 4-for-5 with a home run, RBI and run scored while accounting for seven total bases and a 1.400 slugging percentage. After going 2-for-2 in the game one setback at Robert Morris, Glenn hit 2-for-3 belting her first career home run to propel Detroit Mercy to a 2-0 win to earn a doubleheader split and secure the Titans' first #HLSB victory of the season.
Warrington, a senior from Clarkston, Mich., secured her first win of the season after tossing a complete game shutout only giving up three scattered hits with three strikeouts in 7.0 innings of work in the Titans doubleheader split at RMU.
Detroit Mercy continues #HLSB play with a home opening series against Youngstown State beginning on Saturday, Mar. 25 at 12 p.m.
