Caroline Taylor Named to SoCon All-Tournament Team

GREENSBORO, N.C. – It comes as no surprise that Caroline Taylor has been named to the 2018 Southern Conference All-Tournament Team as announced following today's tournament title game. Mercer finished 1-2 in the tournament, but received a boost from Taylor who batted .667 in the three games.

Taylor finished 4-for-6 at the dish in three games and was walked five times and was plunked once. The redshirt-senior first baseman finished the tournament with an unbelievable on-base percentage of .833 and a whopping slugging percentage of 2.167. Three of Taylor's hits were long balls as the slugger also accounted for six runs batted in and four runs scored.

Taylor ended the season on a nine-game hitting streak and homered in each of the last five games. Taylor's spurt to end the season allowed the Georgia native to become Mercer's all-time leader in career home runs (47), single-season dingers (16) and career runs batted in (157).

Mercer has now placed at least one player on the SoCon All-Tournament Team since the squad joined the league in 2015.

This is the first SoCon All-Tournament honor for Taylor in her stellar career.
