CENTERVILLE, Mass. – Senior Alyssa Zahka (Lexington, Mass.) was named the Corvias ECAC Division I Metro-Upstate Softball Player of the Week.

Defensively, she added 25 putouts and two assists with no errors on the week. With the bases loaded, Zahka doubled to left center to score two in the Red Foxes' 6-5 win over Siena. Marist went on to take the lead in the top of the fifth off of a two-run homer from Zahka. In the victory, Zahka posted four of the Red Foxes' six RBIs. She added another homer for the week, as she added a two-run shot to left center in Marist's 5-0 win over Canisius. Zahka kept the hits coming in the nightcap, as she opened the scoring for Marist with a two-run RBI double. As the Red Foxes closed out their season with two wins over Saint Peter's, Zahka continued her hot streak with yet another RBI double to kick off the first game.
