Junior shortstop Annie Thompson (Pacific Palisades, Calif.) was named Great Northeast Athletic Conference Player of the Week and junior pitcher Courteney Collier (Bolton, Mass.) was named Pitcher of the Week, the GNAC announced on Tuesday. The awards come after a week in which the Sharks went 6-0 in the conference, racking up wins against Mount Ida, Johnson & Wales and Norwich University.

Thompson had at least two hits in each game, and totaled 13 RBIs. Thompson batted .727 for the Sharks, earning a .750 on-base pct, and one home run. "Annie was a big reason for the team going 6-0 this weekend. She consistently made diving stops and layouts for line drives, making one error in 23 chances on the week," said Head Coach Anne Hennigan.

Collier was a perfect 4-0 for Simmons on the mound, pitching 27 innings in four days, and allowing only seven runs. She also batted .300 at the plate. "Courteney made outstanding defensive plays on the mound, robbing multiple hitters from base hits up the middle," said Hennigan.
