INDIANAPOLIS – RMU redshirt senior Courtney Poulich was named the Horizon League Player of the Week, the conference announced Wednesday afternoon. This is her third career weekly honor.
 
Poulich helped lead the Colonials to a 3-2 week, which included two wins at the Catamount Classic and a 12-3 victory over Pitt Tuesday night.
 
Across five games, she hit three home runs and produced 10 RBI while going 9-for-20 at the plate for a .450 batting average and a .478 on-base percentage.
 
Against Pitt, Poulich recorded the sixth two-home-run game of her career. The Greensburg, Pa. native also drove in six runs in the contest, marking the fifth time in her career she has produced five or more RBI in a single game. She has now tallied 26 multi-RBI performances during her career.
 
During the week, Poulich also added two doubles and posted a 1.000 slugging percentage.
 
Poulich currently leads RMU in home runs (8), RBI (25) and runs scored (28). Nationally, she ranks first in runs scored per game (2.00) and third in RBI per game (1.79). She also sits seventh in home runs per game (0.57) and 16th in slugging percentage (1.043).
 
This marks RMU's third weekly honor of the season, as Aglaia Rudd and Eloise Facher have previously been named Horizon League Player of the Week.

Up next, RMU will host its home opener against Mercyhurst with a doubleheader at the North Athletic Complex on Saturday, March 14, beginning at 1:00 PM. The Colonials will then travel to Erie for another doubleheader against Mercyhurst on Sunday, March 15, also starting at 1:00 PM.
