Loebnitz went 2-0 in singles and 2-0 with partner Maria
Lopez in doubles for the Bucs last week. She stepped
up to number-one singles in place of injured star Cornelia
Grunes and defeated Nova Southeastern's Michelle Alvarez
6-1, 6-2. She then knocked off Juliana Garcia of Florida
Gulf Coast 5-7, 6-1, 10-7. She also won at number one
doubles twice with Lopez. For the season, she is 3-0
at the top singles flight and 3-0 with Lopez at number
one doubles.
Naber
has emerged as the Bucs closer AND right fielder. For
the week, he had two saves and a win in three relief
appearances. In the Lynn game on Tuesday, he entered
with the tying run at
second and struckout Alberto Destrade to end the game.
In the first Valdosta State game, he came in with the
tying run on first and worked out of a bases loaded,
no-out situation with two foul outs and a strike out
to end the game. In the second VSU game, he allowed the
tying run to score when his defense made two errors behind
him, but picked up his first college win and struck out
the final batter to end the game. In addition, he hit
.714 (5-for-7) with four runs scored and five RBI in
three games. He also got plunked three times, for a .800
on-base percentage.
