Over the course of the weekend, the Purple Aces will have two games against both Kentucky and Tennessee Tech while facing Western Kentucky in one contest.
 
Taylor Howe enters the weekend as the reigning Missouri Valley Conference Player of the Week.  In four games between Thursday and Sunday of last week, Howe batted .455 while hitting a home run in each contest.  She also slugged an impressive 1.636 over that span.
 
UE completed its second home tournament on Monday, winning contests against Western Michigan and UT Martin.  Jenna Donohoo and Niki Bode each batted .667 in the 4-game tournament with each recording six hits in nine at-bats.  Bode scored four runs while Donohoo added three.
 
Morgan Adams had the top power numbers for the Aces, belting four homers while adding six RBI.  She finished the weekend batting .500.  Pitchers Elle Jarrett and Gracie Hollingsworth had a nice weekend in the circle, both finishing the weekend with a sub-2.00 ERA.
 
As a team, the Aces have hit a combined total of 23 home runs this season.  That is nearly double the total of any other school in the MVC with UNI and Southern Illinois tied for second with 12.  UE also leads the league in runs (85), RBI (79), and total bases (193).
