A senior from Corona, California, Kylie Emanuele continued her impressive opening month of the season last week by recording a .571 batting average (12-of-21) with three home runs, seven RBIs and seven runs scored in a six-game week for Mount Olive.
Last Thursday Emanuele became just the fourth player in Mount Olive program history to reach 200 career hits. She finished 6-for-9 at the plate with two homers, five RBIs and three runs scored in a doubleheader sweep at Winston-Salem State. Against Limestone last Saturday, Emanuele went 4-for-7 with one home run, two doubles, two RBIs and two runs scored in a split of a twinbill. To close out the week, she finished 2-for-5 with two runs scored and one walk in a split at Catawba.
