COMMERCE – Texas A&M University-Commerce softball player
Chanlee Oakes is named this week's Under Armour Student-Athlete of the Week.
Oakes (Emory – Rains) had a role in three of the five wins for the Lions this past week. A&M-Commerce has won 20 of its last 22 games and is 26-6 on the season. Oakes had the game-winning home run in the ninth inning at Midwestern State on Friday in the Lions' 1-0 win. She also hit a three-run home run at Texas Woman's on Sunday. She batted .500 in three games this weekend.
Earlier in the week, Oakes pitched a complete game in the five-inning win over Embry-Riddle on Wednesday. She pitched just 64 pitches in the game and allowed three runs.
The Lions hit the road to face nationally ranked Lubbock Christian on Friday at 2 p.m. and at Angelo State, who is also nationally ranked, on Sunday at 1 p.m.
