Oklahoma's Haley Lee Lands Big 12 Award
Haley Lee's big week last week has produced a big award this week.
Lee on Tuesday was named Big 12 Conference Player of the Week for her performance in OU’s three-game sweep of Texas Tech.
It's OU’s fourth straight player of the week honor of 2023, marking the first time in league history a school has captured Player of the Week four straight times in one season.
Lee led OU to the conference sweep by batting .571 (4-for-7) on the weekend with three home runs, four RBIs and four runs scored. The Texas A&M transfer slugged 1.857 and also drew a pair of walks for a .667 on-base percentage.
In Saturday’s series finale, Lee was 2-for-3 at the plate with two home runs and three RBIs. It was the her first multi-home run game as a Sooner and seventh of her career. Lee is tied for the team lead with 11 home runs and is second on the team with 36 runs batted in.
It's the graduate transfer’s first career Big 12 weekly honor.
The Sooners face No. 12-ranked LSU on Tuesday night in Baton Rouge on ESPN2. The game is set for a 6 p.m. start at Tiger Park.
