Acker, Decker Named MAC Commonwealth Softball Players of The Week

Annville, Pa. (Feb. 25, 2019) – Alvernia sophomore Alyssa Acker and freshman Ally Decker swept the MAC Commonwealth Softball Player of the Week Awards following their performances during the week of February 18 – 24.

Acker earned MAC Commonwealth Softball Player of the Week honors, while Decker earned the honor as MAC Commonwealth Softball Pitcher of the Week.

Acker went 3-5 at the plate, scoring a run and driving in four, in a doubleheader split on Sunday at Shenandoah. Acker hit a two-run, game-tying home run to left field as part of a six-run seventh inning to lead Alvernia to an 11-8 win. Acker was also 1-for-1 on stolen bases and threw out a Shenandoah base runner on a steal attempt.

Decker played a vital role in Alvernia’s 11-8 win over the Hornets. Decker pitched 2.2 innings in relief, including a three-up three-down performance in the bottom of the sixth. The freshman allowed just one run on three hits with a strikeout and a walk en route to her first collegiate win.

I wanted to thank you again for the opportunity you have created for our kids.  This experience is more than the TV show.  Eight students who probably never would have talked to each other were excited to execute a plan. Know that you make a difference.
