National Park College (NPC) Nighthawk sophomore pitcher Avery Creech (Logansport, Louisiana) has been named National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) Division II Region 2 Player of the Week for her outstanding performance in the circle.
In the seventh week of NJCAA reporting this season, Creech finished 2-0, allowing just one hit, striking out eight and throwing the second perfect game in Nighthawk history.
