Keohohou Wins Third MWC Player of the Week

PROVO -- BYU outfielder Oli Keohohou was named Mountain West Conference Softball Player of the Week.

Keohohou, a first-team All-American last season, went 3-for-6 (.500) from the plate, with one homerun, three RBI and three runs scored last weekend as the Cougars split a doubleheader against No. 2 Stanford. She started the day going 1-for-2 from the plate and scoring one run as BYU fell to the Cardinal, 6-3. In BYU's 5-4 win, the Newbury Park, Calif., product proved to be the difference as she capped her 2-for-4 performance from the plate with a game-winning three-run homerun in the top of the seventh, her MWC-leading 14th of the season. Keohohou also leads the conference in RBI (31) and slugging percentage (1.070), as well. This is the third player of the week honor of her career.
