Butler outfielder Hailey Conger, along with pitcher Katie Petran, have each been recognized by the BIG EAST on the Weekly Honor Roll after their performances in the conference series with Seton Hall this past weekend.
Conger went 6-for-11 (.544) to go with five runs scored, five RBI and one stolen base in the weekend sweep over the Pirates. In the 11-3 game-three-win, Conger produced four RBI in her final two at-bats in the fifth and sixth innings – key to securing the victory over Seton Hall.
Petran recorded five strikeouts and gave up nine hits in 8.2 innings of work in two appearances over the weekend. Petran pitched a complete-game shutout victory in game one versus Seton Hall (3-0). She also entered game three in the fifth and closed out the game for an 11-3 win.
Butler (13-9) is now 6-0 in conference play. This week, the Bulldogs will travel to Ball State for a midweek contest and then on to St. John's for a three-game BIG EAST series.
