HAVERFORD, Pa. – Dayle Comerford has been named the Centennial Conference Softball Player of the Week. A senior first baseman for the Fords, Comerford batted .833 in Haverford's only action last week as the Fords earned a hard-fought split with Muhlenberg in a rematch of last year's Centennial Conference Championship.

Comerford went a combined 5-for-6 in Haverford's conference doubleheader. That day at the plate included two doubles and a three-run home run. She scored five runs and drove in four more during the two games. She finished with an 1.167 slugging percentage and did not commit an error in 14 defensive chances at first base. Comerford finished with an .857 on-base percentage as she was intentionally walked with one out and nobody on base in her only other plate appearance.

In Haverford's game one shutout victory, Comerford went 2-for-3 with two runs and three RBI. He three runs driven in came on her third home run of the season in the bottom of the fifth as she added the final insurance to the Fords' lead. Comerford was a perfect 3-for-3 at the plate in game two, while also being issued the intentional free pass. She scored three runs and drove in the game's opening run in the third inning before later coming around to score.

Comerford is batting .383 on the season. She ranks second on the team in doubles (4), home runs (3), RBI (16), runs (15), slugging percentage (.600), and on-base percentage (.409). The Fords' senior is currently ranked third in program history in runs batted in with 104 for her career. She ranks fourth all-time with 34 doubles and has 11 home runs and 202 total bases for her career to rank in the top five in both categories.

The most recent weekly honor is the second for the Haverford College softball team as Kristin Tatum earned this same accolade just two weeks ago. The Fords are scheduled for a busy week with doubleheaders at home against Widener and McDaniel on Tuesday and Thursday. Those respective doubleheaders will each begin at 3 p.m. Haverford will travel to Franklin & Marshall this Saturday for a doubleheader that is slated to get underway at 1 p.m.
