MADI CRONIC – FAN VOTE

Make it four times this season for Madi Cronic as the BLITZ Softball Player of the Week. The senior shortstop had a videogame-like week in games last week for the Lady Leopards. Despite a tough regular season for the defending state champions, Banks County came up with the wins when it mattered most. Cronic hit .583 last week with a homer (Grand Slam) and 8 RBI, scoring 6 runs while adding 4 doubles and 2 stolen bases. She added a pair of walks and slugged 1.167 while guiding the Lady Leopards to a Region Tournament Championship.

LANEY MCGEE – BLITZ PICK

Stephens County junior Laney McGee earns her first-ever Player of the Week award. She belted a homerun last week and drove in 6 runs while scoring 3 times and batting .600. The Lady Indians got off to a rough start to the season, but have played much better in the second half of the season.
