Week 29 belongs to Whidbey Island.
Softball stars who play to the South and North of Coupeville were named Thursday to the Washington Interscholastic Activities Association Athlete of the Week list.
South Whidbey senior Morgan Batchelor and Oak Harbor sophomore Haylee Burleigh were among those selected as athletes from 4A-1B were honored.
Batchelor was hailed for her work on the diamond against Concrete Mar. 29, where she hit for the cycle and tossed a no-hitter, whiffing seven Lions.
Burleigh drew notice for her work at shortstop over a three-game span, as she was flawless in the field.
A two-way star like Batchelor, the Wildcat also pounded out four hits, including a triple, and stole four bases.
