LaGrange College softball player and West Hall High grad Kirsten Woodard was named the Great South Athletic Conference tournament Most Valuable Player on Monday.

Woodard went 4-0 with a 0.58 ERA in the tournament. She pitched back-to-back complete games against top-seeded Maryville College to lead the Lady Panthers to a third straight tournament championship and a bid in the NCAA Division-III national tournament.

The GSAC all-conference selection is 10-1 with a 2.28 ERA this season, and has allowed only five earned runs in her last 69 innings pitched.
