Charles Fischer Administrator No. 1 Share Posted February 10 EUGENE, Ore. – After helping Oregon make history over the weekend in Las Vegas, catcher Emma Cox made some history of her own on Monday by being named the Big Ten’s Freshman of the Week. Cox becomes the first Duck softball player ever to earn a weekly honor from the Big Ten Conference. The Thornton, Colo., native hit .500 and helped Oregon score a record number of runs at the UNLV Desert Classic. The Ducks went 5-0 in Las Vegas and scored 73 runs – the most the program has ever scored over any five-game span. Oregon defeated Buffalo and Southern Utah twice and host UNLV once. Cox was 9-for-18 at the plate with two doubles, two home runs and six RBI for a slugging percentage of .944. She had two home runs as part of a 4-for-4 performance Friday against Southern Utah. Cox is the first true freshman to regularly start behind the dish for the Ducks since Janelle Lindvall in 2013. Lindvall went on to become Oregon’s career leader in home runs (48) and RBI (195). Gotta love that helmet! 3 Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
