GOLDEN - In powering the Colorado School of Mines softball team to its best start since 2006 with a 3-0-1 opening weekend at the RMAC Preview in Denver, senior centerfielder Kamee Vessey was chosen as this week’s Mines Student-Athlete of the Week, announced Monday by athletic department officials. 

A Preseason All-RMAC selection, Vessey finished with a team-high eight RBI; going 4-for-11 with two home runs, one double, one sacrifice fly and five runs scored over the four games.

The Highlands Ranch native also boasted a 1.500 OPS percentage with a 1.000 slugging percentage and .500 on-base percentage and led the Orediggers with 11 total bases and four walks. Dating back to last season, Vessey has successfully reached base in 10 of the last 11 games, including all four games thus far in 2013.

After tying the school’s single-season home run record and earning Second Team All-RMAC accolades in her first year in 2012, Vessey moved up to sixth in career long balls at Mines with 17, one shy of classmate Molly Thiebaut in fifth place.
