BATON ROUGE, La. – Jordynn Jennings and Prestaisha White were named the Southwestern Athletic Conference Pitcher and Newcomer of the Week, the league announced Wednesday.
 
Jennings earned her second weekly honor of the season after securing the win in the Jaguars' 10-4 victory over Memphis. The right-hander came on in relief in the fourth inning and delivered 4.0 innings of two-hit softball. After allowing two early runs, Jennings settled in and retired the final 11 batters she faced, not allowing another runner to reach base over the final 3.2 innings.
 
White, a freshman third baseman, went 3-for-4 with three RBIs and two runs scored in the win. The Sulphur native recorded hits in her first two at-bats, driving in a run with the second before later scoring to give the Lady Jaguars a 4-0 lead. With Southern holding a narrow 5-4 advantage in the sixth inning, White delivered a clutch single through the right side to drive in two runs. She later scored in the inning to extend the lead to 8-4 and help seal the victory.
