EMU junior Aislinn Lucas<\/a><\/strong> (Grottoes, Va.\/Fort Defiance) has earned a repeat spot on the National Fastpitch Coaches Association All-Region Teams.\u00a0 The softball player was named to the All-Atlantic Region Third Team.<\/p>\n

Lucas was named to the All-Region Second Team last year and also has back-to-back All-ODAC First Team nods.<\/p>\n

She batted a career high .452 this spring, a jump of 45 points from last year.\u00a0 Lucas also notched career numbers with 42 hits, 22 runs, 21 RBIs and eight doubles despite playing in seven fewer games than either of her previous seasons.\u00a0 The Royals had 10 games washed off the schedule due to inclement weather.<\/p>\n

Lucas finished third in the Old Dominion Athletic Conference with her batting clip, fourth with a .495 on-base percentage, and tenth with a .634 slugging percentage.\u00a0 She also had a perfect fielding percentage from her position in right field, not making an error in 27 chances.\u00a0 She was one of just five women in the ODAC to play only in the field and not commit an error.<\/p>\n

Of the 45 all-region honorees in the Atlantic Region, which stretches from southern Pennsylvania to Alabama, only nine players from the ODAC were selected.\u00a0 Lucas was one of two ODAC women named all-region who did not play in the NCAA Tournament, as seven of the nine played for national participants Virginia Wesleyan and Randolph-Macon.<\/p>\n

Eastern Mennonite finished the 2015 season with a record of 16-14, charting the 11th consecutive campaign with a .500 or better record.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
