Cyclone Club Athlete of the Week: Angelina Allen

AMES, Iowa – Angelina Allen has been named the Cyclone Club Athlete of the Week after a stellar weekend at the UNLV Desert Classic. Allen helped the ISU softball team to a 4-1 mark in five games, the best record of any team in the field.

The junior went 11-for-19 at the plate, a blistering .579 average, with four doubles, three home runs and 10 RBIs. Allen also drew three walks and only struck out twice as she reached base at a .636 clip.

One of Allen's home runs was an inside-the-park home run, the first by an ISU player since 2017.

Allen registered four multi-hit performances, including three-hit outings in wins over UC Santa Barbara and Bradley. The California native tied a career best with four RBIs Saturday against Bradley.

Iowa State is back next weekend, Feb. 23-25, in Charlottesville, Va., as it is set to take part in the Rawlings Classic. The tournament features host-team Virginia, Lehigh and Delaware.
