Texas A&M International University junior third baseman Angel Montejano has been named Heartland Conference Hitter of the Week for games played Mar. 8-14.

Montejano was TAMIU's top hitter in a three-game sweep of Newman. She went 5-for-7 at the plate with one home run and two RBI against the Jets. She also contributed two doubles, two runs scored and 10 total bases.

Montejano went 4-for-4 in the series finale. TAMIU held a 2-1 lead in that game until she lifted the Dustdevils to a 4-1 lead with a two-run home run to dead center field in the fifth inning. That clutch homer would prove to be the game-winner in a 7-2 victory for the home team.
