This week’s Oklahoma college Players of the Week are Dani Manning, OBU; Emily Cerny, USAO; and Jake Gozzo, OBU.
Dani Manning, freshman, Oklahoma Baptist (Dale H.S.)
Manning hit .412 in a four-game series against Northwestern and put up a .563 on-base percentage. She also put three out of the park on the weekend, and had six RBI, scored seven times and stole a base.
Emily Cerny, freshman, USAO (Newcastle H.S.)
The freshman threw her second no-hitter of the season in a five-inning (10-0) shutout of Southwestern Christian. Close to a perfect game, she allowed only two base runners – she walked one and hit another. Cerny is now 18-0 on the season.
