INDIANAPOLIS – For the third time during the 2026 season, junior catcher Aglaia Rudd has been named Horizon League Player of the Week, the league announced Monday.
 
Rudd delivered a dominant performance to close the regular season, powering RMU to a 4-1 week that included a three-game sweep over Detroit Mercy.
 
Across five games, Rudd launched seven home runs, including an eye-popping six in the series against the Titans. In the series finale, she tied a program record with three home runs in a single game.
 
She finished the week hitting 12-for-21 (.571) with 15 RBIs and eight runs scored while posting a staggering 2.619 slugging percentage. Rudd also recorded her 15th double of the season against Canisius, setting a new program record for doubles in a single season. During the week, she surpassed 100 career RBIs.
 
On the year, Rudd is batting .551 with 60 RBIs, 54 runs scored, 21 home runs and 15 doubles. She owns a 1.125 slugging percentage and a .584 on-base percentage while compiling a .995 fielding percentage behind the plate.
 
Rudd's honor marks RMU's seventh weekly award of the season. Courtney Poulich has earned Player of the Week recognition twice, while Eloise Facher and Mary Brant have each been honored once.
 
RMU now turns its attention to postseason play, as the Colonials will face Detroit Mercy in the opening round of the Horizon League Championship on Wednesday, May 6 at 2:30 PM in Youngstown, Ohio.
