February 23, 2015 by MaxPreps, AZPreps365


LOUISVILLE, Ky. – Senior pitcher/infielder Samantha Show of East Bernard (East Bernard, Texas) and senior third baseman Sarah Williams of Robertsdale (Robertsdale, Ala.) have been selected as the MaxPreps/NFCA National High School Players of the Week for games played Feb. 16-22.

South Central
Show powered East Bernard to a 6-0 start with her arm and her bat. She was 4-0 in the circle with 0.00 ERA and 61 strikeouts to just two walks in 28.1 innings of work, while batting .750 (15-20) with four home runs, 13 RBI and 12 runs scored. She twirled a 17-strikeout (one walk) no hitter in a 1-0 win over Foster and combined on another no hitter two days earlier with 13 strikeouts and zero walks in 5.1 innings of work versus Bellville. Not to overlook the no-hitter, but against Angleton, Show struck out 20, walked just one and surrendered three hits in a 10-inning complete game, while going 3-for-5 with three home runs, three RBI and three runs scored in a 4-3 victory for the Brahmas. For the week, she surrendered just four unearned runs and held her opponents to a .081 (8-98) batting average. At the plate, she added five doubles, two triples, slugged 1.800 and posted a .762 on base percentage

South
Williams batted .786 (11-14) with a double, triple, five RBI and six runs scored helping Robertson to a 7-1 start. Riding a seven-game hitting streak, Williams reached base safely in all eight games and recorded a pair of three-hit contests against Foley and Jackson. Against Jackson, she was 3-for-3 with a double, two RBI and a run scored. She scored twice against Cintronelle and tripled and knocked in a run versus Pine Forest. For the week, Williams walked five times, struck out just once in 19 plate appearances, slugged 1.333, posted a .842 on base percentage.
