Jany, Ulsas Recognized by National Fastpitch Coaches Association

LOUISVILLE, Ky. – After helping Saint Louis post a 4-1 record at UT Martin's Skyhawk Invitational, junior center fielder Karsen Jany and junior third baseman Abby Ulsas are included on the National Fastpitch Coaches Association's "Selected Top Performances" list for Feb. 9-15, the NFCA announced Tuesday.
 
Jany led the Billikens in batting average (9-for-14, .643), on-base percentage (.737), hits (nine), doubles (five), walks (five) and runs (eight) while adding five RBIs and striking out just once in 19 tournament plate appearances. She reached base at least twice and scored at least once in all five games, and she hit safely (with at least one double) in four contests, including a pair of three-hit games and a two-hit outing.
 
Ulsas tied Jany for the team lead with nine hits (9-for-18, .500) and eight runs. She hit safely in all five games, including a three-hit performance and two 2-hit games. Seven of her hits (three triples, four doubles) went for extra bases, and her three triples in an 18-0 win over Mississippi Valley State tied an NCAA single-game record. Ulsas also turned in a .571 on-base percentage, collected at least one RBI in four games (six total) and struck out just twice in 21 plate appearances.
 
Owners of a four-game winning streak, the Billikens play in Central Arkansas' Michelle Short & Adam Brown Tournament Friday-Sunday, Feb. 20-22. SLU will face Southeastern Louisiana and Central Arkansas twice and Evansville once.
