SAN FRANCISCO - Redshirt freshman Aaliyah Jordan was named Pac-12 Conference Freshman of the Week for the third time this season on Tuesday after helping the Bruins remain undefeated with five victories at the Louisville Slugger Invitational at Long Beach State.

Jordan, who was also Pac-12 FOW on Feb. 20 and Feb. 27, hit .529 with nine hits in 17 at-bats, adding a home run, five runs batted in and five runs scored. She had one RBI in all five contests and hits and runs in four of five games, including multiple hits in three.

She began the weekend with an RBI single and a run against Michigan State on March 9, adding a pair of singles, including an RBI hit later that afternoon versus San Jose State. On March 11, the Bruins had a pair of matchups against ranked teams, with Jordan going 6-for-7 in the doubleheader. The redshirt freshman went 2-for-3 with an RBI single, a double and a walk against #16 Ohio State in game one. In the nightcap, Jordan set a career high with four hits versus #21 Long Beach State. She hit what proved to be the game-winning home run in the fifth inning, adding singles in her other three at-bats.

Jordan's Freshman of the Week award is the 10th in UCLA history in just the fourth year of the award's existence and fourth this season, as Briana Perez earned the honor on Feb. 13.

The Bruins (24-0), who are up to second in the ESPN.com/USA Softball rankings and at third in the USA Today/NFCA poll, begin Pac-12 play on Friday at #6 Oregon at 5 p.m. The game will air live on Pac-12 Networks Los Angeles.
