SAN FRANCISCO - For the second week in a row, Kelli Godin has been named Pac-12 Conference Freshman of the Week, earning the honor on Monday after recording four hits, four runs batted in, five runs scored and four stolen bases in Sunday's doubleheader sweep at CSUN.

In just two plate appearances in game one versus Saint Mary's, Godin had a single, a walk, three runs scored (re-entered as a runner in one inning) and three stolen bases. The three swipes against the Gaels were the second time this season Godin had accomplished the feat versus Saint Mary's, also doing so on Feb. 9. The three steals also tie a single-game school record. 

In game two against CSUN, Godin tied season highs with three hits and three RBI, scoring twice and stealing another base. She singled in the second, and in the sixth inning, drove in three runs in two separate at-bats on an RBI triple and a two-run single.

For the season, Godin is batting .528 with nine RBI, and is a perfect 17-for-17 on stolen base attempts.



UCLA has earned 10 Pac-12 weekly awards this season. It marks the Bruins' fifth conference Freshman of the Week award in seven weeks. Freshman Megan Faraimo has picked up three awards on Feb. 19, Feb. 26 and March 12. Redshirt junior Rachel Garcia has received five weekly honors (Player of the Week on March 19 and Pitcher of the Week on Feb. 12, Feb. 19, Feb. 26 and March 19).

The Bruins host UC Santa Barbara on Monday evening at Easton Stadium at 6 p.m.
