Alo, Trautwein Collect Big 12 Weekly Honors

NORMAN — Oklahoma redshirt seniors Jocelyn Alo and Hope Trautwein collected Big 12 weekly honors for their week two performances at the Houston Classic.

Alo was named Big 12 Player of the Week after a five-homer weekend in five games, including hitting career No. 95 to tie Lauren Chamberlain as the NCAA Career Home Run Leaders. Alo batted .600 on the weekend with 11 RBI and seven extra base hits, leading No. 1 OU to five run-rule wins. The reigning national and Big 12 player of the year slugged an exceptional 1.733 and registered 26 total bases.

Alo hit four home runs across two games on Saturday, hitting two long balls in back-to-back games for the first time in her career.

Trautwein, named conference co-pitcher of the week, threw her fourth career no-hitter in OU's 11-0 run-rule victory over McNeese on Saturday. The graduate transfer struck out eight in five innings of work and allowed just one walk to the 16 batters she faced. It marked her first individual no-hitter as a Sooner after combining on a perfect game in OU's season opener.

In Trautwein's two appearances on the weekend, she struck out 10 in six innings pitched and allowed just one hit and two walks to go with no runs. She holds a 0.00 ERA on the season, having not giving up any runs in her 17.0 IP.

It marks Alo's fifth career Big 12 Player of the Week honor and the first for Trautwein, playing her first season in the conference.

Oklahoma makes its return to the Mary Nutter Collegiate Classic in Palm Springs, Calif., this weekend, Feb. 25-27. The Sooners match up against Cal State-Fullerton, Long Beach State, No. 8/10 Arizona, No. 17/17 Tennessee and Utah.
