WICHITA, Kan.- Wichita State softball student-athlete Sammie Shook has been announced the Missouri Valley Conference Player-of-the-Week as announced by league officials Monday afternoon.

Shook led the Shockers' offensive attack for the second straight week as she led WSU to a 3-3 re­cord, including a 4-2 up­set over #18 Oklahoma State. After hitting .500 in the series sweep over Creighton two weeks ago, Shook followed that up with a .429 batting average in the Shockers' six games in five days last week. She picked up six hits, two doubles, three home runs, nine RBI, and scored four runs in 14 at bats. 

Shook hit for power with her two doubles and three home runs which was good for a 1.214 slugging percentage. She picked up at least one hit in five of the Shockers' six games last week. 

Shook went 1-for-2 and picked up an RBI in the upset over #18 Oklahoma State. She went on and led the Shockers' in the series against the Purple Aces. She was 4-for-7 with a double, three home runs, seven RBI, and four runs scored. Shook hit two home runs in the 12-4 run-rule over the Aces on Fri., April 22. 

This is the second Player-of-the-Week award for the Shockers' this season. Jamie Hull won the award back in February.
