Week 5 Athlete of the Week: Megan Quinn

Here is the Louisburg Sports Zone Athlete of the Week for week five of the spring sports season, sponsored by Edward Jones-Craig Holtzen.

MEGAN QUINN, JUNIOR, SOFTBALL

Louisburg junior Megan Quinn has been causing opposing pitchers fits the last couple weeks — last week in particular. During a quad at McPherson and a home doubleheader against Osawatomie, Quinn accounted for three home runs and 10 RBIs during that four game stretch. She also found success on the mound with nine strikeouts in two games.

Quinn is in rarified air as far as Louisburg softball goes. After last week, Quinn has now homered in five of her last six contests and is one of the few — if any — in school history to achieve the feat. She is currently hitting .364 on the season with 16 hits, four doubles, five home runs and 14 RBIs.

The athlete of the week award is announced every Wednesday morning during the spring season and the winner is selected by Louisburg Sports Zone with the help of nominations from coaches.
