She’s getting some big props.
Coupeville grad Sarah Wright was honored Monday by the Southern Athletic Association, tabbed as the SAA Softball Player of the Week.
The former Wolf, now a junior at Sewanee: The University of the South, had a huge day Sunday, ripping holes in the encroaching fog with lasers off her bats.
Wright bashed a double, came around to score, then hammered a game-tying three-run homerun as the Tigers stunned highly ranked Birmingham-Southern College.
Sewanee, which trailed 5-1 entering its final at-bat, rallied to win 6-5.
Wright, a prairie supernova, was a four-sport star, Valedictorian, and Homecoming Queen during her days at Coupeville High School.
She also sparked a full-on riot by an unruly group of hungry seagulls when she went running through an Eastern Washington parking lot waving tasty sandwiches in both hands while killing time at the state softball tourney during her high school senior season.
Legendary.
